#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - More than twenty years into her career, Kay Scarpetta is confronted with a case that could ruin her professionally--and personally . . .

"Cornwell remains the master of incorporating real-life science into pulse-pounding fiction."--The Philadelphia Inquirer

IN DEVELOPMENT AS THE ORIGINAL SERIES SCARPETTA STARRING NICOLE KIDMAN AND JAMIE LEE CURTIS

Kay Scarpetta's secret military ties have drawn her to Dover Air Force Base and Port Mortuary, where she's performing autopsies on fallen soldiers. But her new headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts--the Cambridge Forensic Center--is the first civilian facility in the U.S. to do virtual autopsies, and it is there that she encounters a devastating event.

A young man has died, apparently from a cardiac arrhythmia, eerily close to Scarpetta's new Cambridge home. But when his body is examined the next morning, there are stunning indications that he may have been alive when he was zipped inside a pouch and locked inside the Center's cooler. Various 3-D radiology scans reveal more shocking details about internal injuries unlike any Scarpetta has ever seen--details that suggest the possibility of a conspiracy to cause mass casualties. With Benton, Marino, and Lucy at her side, Scarpetta must fight a cunning, cruel--and invisible--enemy in a race against time. . . .
