Dr. Kay Scarpetta, now freelancing from south Florida, returns to the city that turned its back on her five years ago.

Richmond, Virginia’s recently appointed chief medical examiner claims that he needs Scarpetta’s help to solve a perplexing crime. When she arrives, however, Scarpetta finds that nothing is as she expected: her former lab is in the final stages of demolition; the inept chief
isn’t the one who requested her after all; her old assistant chief has developed personal problems that he won’t reveal; and a glamorous FBI agent, whom Scarpetta dislikes instantly, meddles with the case.

Deprived of assistance from colleagues Benton and Lucy, who are embroiled in what first appears to be an unrelated attempted rape by a stalker, Scarpetta is faced with investigating the death of a fourteen-year-old girl, working with the smallest pieces of evidence—traces
that only the most thorough hunters can identify. She must follow the twisting leads and track the strange details in order to make the dead speak—and to reveal the sad truth that may be more than even she can bear …©2004 Cornwell Entertainment, Inc. (P)2004 Penguin Audio

I love the Scarlett’s series! I listen on Audible and out of the Three readers for this series thus far, Kate Reading is my absolute favorite!

Great book

Theses last two books in the series seem to be written by a ghost writer. I’ve enjoyed this series but the characters, the writing has changed.

Better than the Last One

This was one of the best books in the series except for the rushed ending, same as her last book. It is infuriating to donate all your time to a book, then the last 20 minutes are a letdown. Why does she do this???

Same thing as the last book...

Good vocals through the story, but the wrap up is contrived and too quick with no good reason.

Quick ending

I’m from the south Florida area. There were streets mentioned that I drive on daily. I appreciate the accuracy of layout. (I.e. when driving east on Atlantic and making a left on A1A, you actually do run into the Hillsboro inlet). Nice to see a glimmer of hope that both Lucy and Marino realize they need to change.

Love the accuracy
