POSTMORTEM (P/B)

Παρουσίαση

A serial killer is on the loose in Richmond, Virginia.
Three women have died, brutalised and strangled in their own bedrooms. There is no pattern: the killer appears to strike at random - but always early on Saturday mornings.
So when Dr Kay Scarpetta, Chief Medical Examiner, is awakened at 2.33 a.m. she knows the news is bad: there is a fourth victim.
And she fears now for those who will follow unless she can dig up new forensic evidence to aid the police.
But not everyone is pleased to see a woman in this powerful job. Someone may even want to ruin her career and reputation...
A landmark book, Postmortem introduces one of the most popular and intriguing characters in crime fiction, Dr Kay Scarpetta. This special 20th-anniversary edition features an exclusive profile of Patricia Cornwell and Kay Scarpetta - it is the perfect introduction to an addictively readable series. (From the publisher)
