About this listen

On her quest to find out exactly what happened to her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, murdered six months before, Scarpetta drives to the Georgia Prison for Women to meet a convicted sex offender and the mother of a vicious and diabolically brilliant killer.

Against the advice of her FBI criminal intelligence agent husband, Benton Wesley, Scarpetta is determined to hear this woman out..

Scarpetta has both personal and professional reasons to learn more about a string of grisly killings: the murder of a Savannah family years earlier, a young woman on death row, and then other inexplicable deaths that begin to occur at a breathtaking pace. Driven by inner forces, Scarpetta discovers connections that compel her to conclude that what she thought ended with Fielding’s death and an attempt on her own life is only the beginning of something far more destructive: a terrifying terrain of conspiracy and potential terrorism on an international scale.

And she is the only one who can stop it.

Lorelei King embodies the characters penned by Cornwell and keeps you gripped until the end.

in this book, you see how Kay's lives intersect and cause her conflicts which need to be managed. Cornwell captures this and takes you through the journey with Kay so you also feel that you are seeing the evidence, feeling the guilt and making those decisions too.

Cornwell is fabulous, as always

I've listened to other Patricia Cornwall books with the same narrator. I think this was her best performance I've listened to. Kept guessing until quite close to the end & how everything ties up made this unmissable I feel.

Five stars across the board

Took a long time to build up to not a great deal. Have thoroughly enjoyed Ms Cornwal in the past, but this story didn't grab me.
