Description
The fingerprints say the murderer is the man who's just been executed. Dr Kay Scarpetta waits for the body of Ronnie Joe Waddell, a convicted murderer about to be executed, at the morgue. However, Waddell's death is not the only newsworthy event on this freezing night: a young boy's body is found propped against a rubbish skip. The two cases seem unrelated, but Scarpetta recalls that the body of Waddell's victim had been arranged in a strikingly similar position. As the investigation unfolds, Scarpetta must navigate the complexities of two seemingly unrelated crimes.
