Book Description:
Patricia Cornwell's heroine Dr. Kay Scarpetta is back to solve the mystery of the death of an Associated Press reporter who was killed while nosing about in a decommissioned navy yard. Scarpetta's involvement in the case leads her to be targeted for murder herself by a nasty little neo-fascist cult with delusions of grandeur that include a plan to "kill and maim, frighten, brainwash and torture" all who oppose their plan to rule the world. Helping Scarpetta is her niece Lucy, an F.B.I. agent whose computer expertise leads to a heart-stopping journey into cyberspace.

The whole story line is excellent only the solutions to the murder seems contrived but it is overall a good read.

This is another Scarpetta novel. 30-feet below the Elizabeth River's icy surface a scuba diver is dead, an investigative reporter who was a favorite at the Medical Examiner's Office. Then a second murder occurs. This book brillantly delivers high-tension and suspense.

Patricia Cornwells Kay Scarpetta is a character who becomes addicting. Smart, Funny, brave, and tough she is a character who sticks with you, and you will find yourself wanting to read the whole series. Chapters are on the shorter side so the book is easier to digest.
Patricia W. from SCOTTSDALE, AZ wrote on 7/23/2006...Dr. Kay Scarpetta must solve an old murder that took place thirty feet below a river's icy surface. In addition to the old crime scene, a new one emerges with an investigative reporter dying. This book in the Scarpetta series was one of my favorites.
Wendy C. (Another great book from Patricia Cornwell.
