Description

Kay Scarpetta has been training at the Dover Port Mortuary, mastering the art of 'virtual autopsy' - a groundbreaking procedure that could soon revolutionise forensic science. When a young man drops dead, apparently from a heart condition, eerily close to her home, she is faced with a case that urgently needs her new skills. The examination of his body reveals stunning indications that he may have been alive when zipped inside a pouch and locked in the cooler, leading Scarpetta to realise that this is a case of murder. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she must race against time to discover who and why before more people die. The outcome is far from certain, and the stakes are high. Patricia Cornwell's latest instalment in her bestselling series is available now.
