About this ebook

The No. 1 bestselling series starring medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta.

You are being watched

The death of a Hollywood mogul’s daughter has the police convinced it’s an accident. But Dr. Kay Scarpetta knows better. It’s almost as if someone is leaving evidence only she would spot.

They are always three steps ahead

Scarpetta is sidetracked when she receives a video clip revealing disturbing secrets about her niece, Lucy. But before she can react, the FBI raid Lucy’s estate.

Time is running out

Scarpetta suspects one person is behind it all: the murder, the videos, the FBI. She needs to stop them before it's too late – and everyone she loves is destroyed.

Absolutely loved this book, could not put it down. Fast paced, complex, intelligent crime thriller with great characters and great attention to detail. Patricia Cornwell is a brilliant writer and I have read and loved pretty much all of her books.

To be honest the main character waffles on and on in thought, makes it a bit boring for me and it's just not fast paced. Didn't keep me interested for long
