Description

A body discovered within the guarded grounds of MIT—oddly draped and seemingly staged—pulls forensic pathologist Dr. Kay Scarpetta into a case that refuses to stay contained within the walls of academia. As she follows the evidence, the investigation widens into a volatile network involving designer drugs, cutting-edge drone technology, and the shadowy machinery of organized crime. With each breakthrough, Scarpetta uncovers signs of corruption reaching into the highest levels, turning a baffling murder into a far-reaching battle over power, secrecy, and accountability. Patricia Cornwell’s trademark blend of forensic detail and fast-moving suspense drives this chilling story of science weaponized and truth buried under dust.
