Kay Scarpetta Series - Book 18

After six months training in virtual autopsy at Dover Air Force Base, Dr. Kay Scarpetta is called back to Cambridge when a man collapses mysteriously and later begins bleeding after being locked in the morgue cooler. Her investigation reveals strange internal injuries and tiny embedded audio receivers, pointing to cutting-edge technology—and a conspiracy that spans across unrelated deaths from bombs in Afghanistan to a tortured college student. As Scarpetta connects the dots, she realizes her past military ties might hold the key—and the threat—to everything falling apart. Back in command at her new Cambridge Forensic Center, she must contend not only with a complex and dangerous case, but with betrayal among her team and pressure to keep her center viable. The result is a tense, high-tech thriller that exposes the dark potential of science—and power.
