About this product

Product Information

In this provocative thriller, forensic expert Kay Scarpetta is surrounded by familiar faces, yet traveling down the unfamiliar road of fame.... 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, culminating in an ominous package--possibly a bomb--showing up at the front desk of the apartment building where she and her husband, Benton, live. 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 millionaire with whom her niece, 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. She wonders if she will end up like other TV personalities: her own stereotype.

  • Spying The Scarpetta Factor

    This is a good book with the same "feel" & context of other Patricia Cornwell book. My only complaint has to do with the alternating typefaces present at the beginning of each chapter. It flips from sans-serif to serif for no apparent reason & serif is easier to read. Also, the type face or spacing is slightly smaller than normal. These factors aside, it is a wonderful book and I have been quite pleased with her other manuscripts as well.

  • Great book!

    Great to find this book at a low price! I'm reading the series and this was one of the books I was missing.

  • Great Stories!

    Have started reading all Patricia Cornwell books from the first publication. They have all been intriguing. I love the mystery of them. I am sure this one will be too. I have several others to finish before this one. I can't lay them down. Love, Love, Love!
