    Number-one best-selling author Patricia Cornwell delivers the next enthralling thriller in her high-stakes series starring Kay Scarpetta - a complex tale involving a serial sniper who strikes chillingly close to the forensic sleuth herself. It's Chief Medical Examiner Dr Kay Scarpetta's birthday, and while she's enjoying a leisurely morning, a man is shot dead five minutes from her house. The bullet tore through him as he unloaded groceries from his car. Yet nobody heard or saw a thing. It looks like the work of a serial sniper - one who leaves no trace except for tiny copper fragments, and whose seemingly impossible shots cause instant death. As Scarpetta investigates, uncovering details that only she can analyze, she begins to suspect that the killer is sending her a message. Adding to Scarpetta's growing unease is the sense that those closest to her are keeping secrets. And when her pursuit of the sniper takes Scarpetta to a shipwreck off the Florida coast, she comes face to face with shocking evidence that implicates her niece Lucy - Scarpetta's very own flesh and blood… ungekürzt.

    Als Kay Scarpetta nach einem furchtbaren Einsatz an ihr Institut zurückkehrt, wartet gleich der nächste Fall auf sie: eine in Leinenstoff eingewickelte Frauenleiche, die man auf dem Campusgelände gefunden hat. Es handelt sich um die Informatikstudentin Gail Shipton, die zuletzt in einer beliebten Bar gesehen wurde, in der auch Scarpettas Nichte Lucy gern verkehrt. Ein Zufall? Die forensische Untersuchung legt nahe, dass die Studentin Opfer eines Serienmörders wurde. Bei ihren Ermittlungen gerät Kay Scarpetta in eine Welt, die von modernster Überwachungstechnologie und Designerdrogen beherrscht wird. Noch bedrohlicher allerdings scheint der tiefe Sumpf von organisierter Kriminalität und Korruption auf höchster Ebene, auf den sie bei ihren Ermittlungen stößt.

    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 the grand jury that 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 New York prosector 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? Language: English. Narrator: Roberta Maxwell. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/twuk/000166/bk_twuk_000166_sample.mp3.

    The "book of the dead" is the morgue log, the ledger in which all cases are entered by hand. For Kay Scarpetta, however, it is about to have a new meaning. Fresh from her battle with a psychopath in Florida, Scarpetta decides it's time for a change of pace. Moving to Charleston, South Carolina, she opens a unique private forensic pathology practice, offering expert crime-scene investigation and autopsies to communities lacking access to modern technology. It seems like an ideal situation, until the murders and violent deaths begin. A young man from a prominent family jumps off a water tower. A woman is ritualistically murdered in her multi-million-dollar beach home. The body of an abused young boy is found dumped in a desolate marsh. Scarpetta has dealt with many brutal and unusual crimes, but never a string of them as baffling, or as terrifying, as these. Before she is through, that book of the dead will contain many names - and the pen may be poised to write her own. Language: English. Narrator: Mary Stuart Masterson.
