»På området rättsmedicinska deckare finns det ingen som kan tävla med Patricia Cornwell.« | The New York Times Book Review
Någon är ute efter Beryl Madison. Någon som ringer obehagliga, skrämmande samtal. Beryl flyr till Key West för att slippa undan, men återvänder så småningom till sitt hem i Richmond, Virginia. Där, i vad som borde vara en trygg vrå, hittas hon mördad, knivskuren till döds. Rättsöverläkaren Kay Scarpetta dras in i en svår utredning och måste försöka rekonstruera Beryls sista tid i livet. Varför öppnade Beryl dörren för en främling? Hur såg hennes relation ut till en prisad författare? Och varför saknas hennes eget manuskript? Kay måste pussla samman ledtrådarna: ett pussel som leder henne mot mördaren som väntar i skuggorna. Utredningen förvandlas snart till en fasa, inte minst för Kay själv. Indicier är den andra, fristående boken om Kay Scarpetta och en av Cornwells verkliga spänningsklassiker.
PATRICIA CORNWELL är en av världens bäst säljande kriminalförfattare, översatt till 36 språk och med över 100 miljoner sålda böcker. Sammanlagt har hon haft 29 titlar på New York Times bestsellerlista.

I Richmond, Virginia slår en monstruös förövare till i skydd av mörkret, och lämnar efter sig ett vedervärdigt spår av strypmord som paralyserar staden.Rättsläkaren Kay Scarpetta förväntar sig det värsta: ett välplanerat fälttåg utfört av en briljant seriemördare vars signatur inte ger några tydliga ledtrådar. Med ett osvikligt öga för detaljer tar Scarpetta hjälp av de senaste kriminaltekniska rönen för att försöka demaskera mördaren.Men det är en utredning som kommer att sätta Scarpetta på prov som ingen annan, eftersom den verkar vara utsatt för sabotage inifrån - och för att någon vill se henne död.I svensk översättning av Erik Andersson.

The body of a young woman has been discovered inside the sheltered gates of MIT, draped in an unusual cloth and posed in a way that is too deliberate to be the killer's first strike.

Kay måste nu använda sina egna resurser för att jaga en mördare som är lika skicklig på att dölja ledtrådar som hon är på att hitta dem.

No.1 bestselling author Patricia Cornwell delivers the next enthralling thriller in her high-stakes series starring Kay Scarpetta—a complex tale involving a serial sniper who strikes chillingly close to the forensic sleuth herself.It’s Dr. Kay Scarpetta’s birthday and she’s about to head to Miami for a vacation with her FBI profiler husband Benton Wesley when she notices seven pennies on a wall behind their Cambridge house. Is this a kids’ game? If so, why are all of the coins dated 1981 and so shiny it’s as if they’re newly minted? Her cellphone rings, and Detective Pete Marino tells her there’s been a homicide five minutes away. A high school music teacher has been shot with shocking precision as he unloaded groceries from his car. No one heard or saw a thing. It’s as if God did it.In this 22nd Scarpetta novel, the master forensic sleuth finds herself in the middle of a nightmarish pursuit of a serial sniper who seems to leave no evidence except fragments of copper. The shots are so perfect, they cause instant death and seem impossible, and the death scenes aren’t crime scenes because the killer was never within hundreds of yards of the targets. The victims seem to have nothing in common, and there is no pattern that might indicate where the Copperhead will strike next. First New Jersey, then Massachusetts, and then into the murky depths off the coast of South Florida, where Scarpetta dives a shipwreck, looking for answers that only she can discover and analyze. There she must face an unthinkable truth that points in the direction of her techno genius niece, Lucy, Scarpetta’s own flesh and blood.

No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell delivers the twenty-third engrossing thriller in her high-stakes series starring medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta.Dr. Kay Scarpetta is working a suspicious death scene in Cambridge, Massachusetts when an emergency alert sounds on her phone. A video link lands in her text messages and seems to be from her computer genius niece Lucy. But how can it be? It’s clearly a surveillance film of Lucy taken almost twenty years ago.As Scarpetta watches she begins to learn frightening secrets about her niece, whom she has loved and raised like a daughter. That film clip and then others sent soon after raise dangerous legal implications that increasingly isolate Scarpetta and leave her confused, worried, and not knowing where to turn. She doesn’t know whom she can tell – not her FBI husband Benton Wesley or her investigative partner Pete Marino. Not even Lucy.In this new novel, Cornwell launches these unforgettable characters on an intensely psychological odyssey that includes the mysterious death of a Hollywood mogul’s daughter, aircraft wreckage on the bottom of the sea in the Bermuda Triangle, a grisly gift left in the back of a crime scene truck, and videos from the past that threaten to destroy Scarpetta’s entire world and everyone she loves. The diabolical presence behind what unfolds seems obvious – but strangely, not to the FBI. Certainly that’s the message they send when they raid Lucy’s estate and begin building a case that could send her to prison for the rest of her life.In the latest novel in her bestselling series featuring chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta, Cornwell will captivate readers with the shocking twists, high-wire tension, and cutting-edge forensic detail that she is famous for, proving yet again why she’s the world’s #1 bestselling crime writer.
