The thrilling new Kay Scarpetta Mystery from the #1 global bestseller. Scarpetta is coming to the screen soon, starring Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis

'I'm still seeing stars . . . Kay Scarpetta is the same grumpy, wonderful, riveting personality she's always been and she's only getting better with time' James Patterson

Murder and mayhem. Scarpetta is back, and she's racing against the clock . . .

Chief medical examiner Kay Scarpetta is the reluctant star witness in a sensational murder trial when she receives shocking news. The judge's sister has been found dead. At first glance, it appears to be a home invasion, but then why was nothing stolen, and why is the garden strewn with dead plants and insects?

Although there is no apparent cause of death, Scarpetta recognizes tell-tale signs of the unthinkable, and she knows the worst is yet to come. The forensic pathologist finds herself pitted against a powerful force that returns her to the past, and her time to catch the killer is running out . . .

Industry Reviews

Riveting - THE TIMES

I'm still seeing stars. A great thriller. One of the hardest things as a series writer is keeping your famous heroes fresh year after year. Kay Scarpetta is not only still fresh, she's the same grumpy, wonderful, riveting personality she's always been - a full-on human being - and she's only getting better with time. I love catching up with her every year
