It is the week before Christmas. The effects of the credit crunch have prompted Dr Kay Scarpetta to offer her services pro bono to New York City's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. But in no time at all, her increased visibility seems to precipitate a string of dramatic and unsettling events. She is asked live on the air about the sensational case of Hannah Starr, who has vanished and is presumed dead. Moments later during the same broadcast, she receives a startling call-in from a former psychiatric patient of Benton Wesley's. When she returns after the show to the apartment where she and Benton live, she finds a suspicious package - possibly a bomb - waiting for her at the front desk.

Seller's Description:
Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -It is the week before Christmas. A tanking economy has prompted Dr. Kay Scarpetta-despite her busy schedule and her continuing work as the senior forensic analyst for CNN-to offer her services pro bono to New York City`s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. In no time at all her increased visibility seems to precipitate a string of unexpected and unsettling events. She is asked live on the air about the sensational case of Hannah Starr who has vanished and is presumed dead. Moments later during the same telecast she receives a startling call-in from a former psychiatrist patient of Benton Wesley`s. When she returns after the show to the apartment where she and Benton live she finds an ominous package-possibly a bomb-waiting for her at the front desk. Soon the apparent threat on Scarpetta`s life finds her embroiled in a surreal plot that includes a famous actor accused of an unthinkable sex crime and the disappearance of a beautiful millionaires with whom Lucy seems to have shared a secret past. Scarpetta`s CNN producer wants her to launch a TV show called The Scarpetta Factor. Given the bizarre events already in play she fears that her growing fame will generate the illusion that she has a `special factor` a mythical ability to solve all her cases.

Marino is working for the NYPD; Benton Wesley uses his forensic psychological expertise at Kirby and Bellevue; and Lucy continues to dazzle with her expertise in forensic computer investigations as she works yet another case with NY prosecutor Jaime Berger. -> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Sphere Books The date of this copy is 2010 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Kay Scarpetta Series.
