Description

Chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta solves the baffling case of two mauled bodies in the woods and the mysteriously large footprint found nearby in this thriller from a New York Times bestselling author.

Scarpetta, based on the character Dr. Kay Scarpetta, is now a streaming series starring Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis. 

In this thrilling installment of the Scarpetta series, chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta finds herself in a Northern Virginia wilderness examining the remains of two campers wanted by federal law enforcement. The victims have been savaged beyond recognition, and other evidence is terrifying and baffling, including a larger-than-life footprint.      

After one of the most frightening body retrievals of her career, Scarpetta must discover who would commit murders this savage, and why.

Reviews

  • Overly Detailed, Repetitious & Emotionless

    By Ems A
    Liked the premise, with Scarpetta thrust into super high tech, the Russians and the wacky amoral couple at the center. But the tech and the travel were overly detailed and eventually became very boring. Cornwall was so repetitive with her entire plot and descriptions that I eventually skipped chunks of later chapters and still kept up with the storyline — because it was detailed for me again and again. Very disappointed at a book that should have been more exciting. Perhaps Scarpetta was too worn out by the Russians to deliver.

  • A good story

    I haven’t read one of the series in years and now I remember why. Her stories and themes have become routine. Scarpitta’s fears to consistent with no growth. And the technologies she has faced in this one are too unbelievable at present, possible but not probable.

  • Another Thriller from Cornwall

    Well paced and easy to read, but hard to put down. Another Cornwall thriller perhaps without as many of the suspense surprises we’ve become accustomed from her. Highly enjoyable. Well worth your time.
