Description
Dr. Kay Scarpetta is drawn into a chilling investigation when an eleven-year-old girl is brutally murdered, her body discovered by a lake. The crime bears a disturbing resemblance to the methods of a notorious serial killer who has long evaded capture, forcing Scarpetta to confront a terrifying pattern. As she delves into the forensic details, Scarpetta must also navigate a personal crisis involving her brilliant niece, Lucy, who faces accusations of a serious security breach. The investigation leads Scarpetta to a clandestine research facility in Tennessee, known as The Body Farm, where the truth behind the horrific murder—and a conspiracy far more sinister—begins to unravel.
