The eleventh book in the Kay Scarpetta series, from No. 1 bestselling author
Patricia Cornwell.
'America's most chilling writer of crime fiction' The Times
Physically and psychologically bruised by her encounter with the killer
Chandonne, Dr Kay Scarpetta has to leave her home in the hands of the police
team investigating the attack. She finds shelter with an old friend, Anna
Zenner, but it is not the haven of security she needs when she discovers that
Anna has been sub-poenaed to appear before a Grand Jury which is investigating
Scarpetta for murder. Kay knows she is being framed and she also knows she can
trust no-one.
Meanwhile it appears that Chandonne killed a woman in New York before his
murderous spree in Virginia, but when Scarpetta looks more closely into that
case with the NY prosecutor Jaime Berger, proof of his guilt is far from
certain - in fact she begins to believe that he may not be the perpetrator of
any of the crimes he is accused of. As she follows the forensic trail to the
real killer she gradually realises that someone has been spinning a web for
years with the aim of entrapping her. Who is it, and why are they so desperate
to be rid of her?
Praise for the groundbreaking series:
