Determined to find out what happened to her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, murdered six months earlier, Kay Scarpetta travels to the Georgia Prison for Women, where an inmate has information not only on Fielding, but also on a string of grisly killings. The murder of an Atlanta family years ago, a young woman on death row, and the inexplicable deaths of homeless people as far away as California seem unrelated. But Scarpetta discovers connections that compel her to conclude that what she thought ended with Fielding's death and an attempt on her own life is only the beginning of something far more destructive: a terrifying terrain of conspiracy and potential terrorism on an international scale. And she is the only one who can stop it.

Narrator Kate Burton is the best thing about the latest Patricia Cornwell mystery. Her crisp, no-nonsense delivery helps keep an unnecessarily complex plot moving, from beginning to convoluted end. The question that comes to mind while listening is why does forensics scientist Kay Scarpetta act so illogically? Scarpetta delves into the twisted past of her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, who was murdered in the last novel. From there, the story branches out to a confusing miasma of murder and other mysterious doings. The solution is a bit far-fetched, and the method Scarpetta uses to solve the murders is even more unlikely. It's not a bad book, but it pales before Cornwell's work of a decade ago. M.S.
