In this first title of a new mystery series, Cornwell introduces us to a dynamic trio of crime solvers in Charlotte, North Carolina: Andy Brazil, an eager young reporter; Judy Hammer, the city's police chief; and Virginia West, Hammer's deputy and a genuine head turner. They're after a serial killer who pulls male out-of-towners from their rental cars and then mutilates, spray paints, and shoots them, in that order. What the trio uncovers jolts them like the sting of the hornet - Charlotte's symbol.

Vain and charismatic Walter Sickert made a name for himself as a painter in Victorian London. But the ghoulish nature of his art - as well as extensive evidence - points to another name, one that's left its bloody mark on the pages of history: Jack the Ripper. Cornwell has collected never-before-seen archival material - including a rare mortuary photo, personal correspondence and a will with a mysterious autopsy clause - and applied cutting-edge forensic science to open an old crime to new scrutiny.

Seven years earlier, the first victim was found in a strange location with his left hand hacked off; subsequently, two other visitors vanished without a trace.

First, though, she must stop at a newly uncovered burial site in the heart of the city. The remains are probably old and only of archeological interest, but Tempe must make sure they're not a case for the police. One look at the decomposed and decapitated corpse, stored neatly in plastic bags, tells her she'll spend the weekend in the crime lab.

Resumen del Editor
From America’s #1 bestselling crime writers comes an extraordinary #1 New York Times bestselling Kay Scarpetta novel.
Leaving behind her private forensic pathology practice in Charleston, South Carolina, Kay Scarpetta accepts an assignment in New York City, where the NYPD has asked her to examine an injured man on Bellevue Hospital’s psychiatric prison ward. The handcuffed and chained patient, Oscar Bane, has specifically asked for her, and when she literally has her gloved hands on him, he begins to talk—and the story he has to tell turns out to be one of the most bizarre she has ever heard.
The injuries, he says, were sustained in the course of a murder . . . that he did not commit. Is Bane a criminally insane stalker who has fixed on Scarpetta? Or is his paranoid tale true, and it is he who is being spied on, followed and stalked by the actual killer? The one thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered—and more violent deaths will follow. Gradually, an inexplicable and horrifying truth emerges: Whoever is committing the crimes knows where his prey is at all times. Is it a person, a government? And what is the connection between the victims?
In the days that follow, Scarpetta; her forensic psychologist husband, Benton Wesley; and her niece, Lucy, who has recently formed her own forensic computer investigation firm in New York, will undertake a harrowing chase through cyberspace and the all-too-real streets of the city—an odyssey that will take them at once to places they never knew, and much, much too close to home.
Throughout, Cornwell delivers shocking twists and turns, and the kind of cutting-edge technology that only she can provide. Once again, she proves her exceptional ability to entertain and enthrall.

Caught up in the checkered past of her hero and mentor, Chief Justice Clayton Erlenborn, Beth must cunningly maneuver through a dangerous web of secrets, deception, and cold-blooded murder.

Historia
The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

If you like this series, I think you’ll like this book…
This is a thorough review of this title and this series, as a whole.
I’ll start by saying that I believe most of the people reviewing this series negatively either just don’t enjoy it, yet oddly continue to read it, or start it in the middle and don’t truly grasp it. There are things that each book helps you to understand about the characters, as well as the reasons Cornwell includes the things she does in each book. So, starting at book one will definitely make the read more enjoyable, in my opinion. Sure, you can listen any of these titles without listening to or reading the previous books, but they’re so much better if you start at the beginning. It’s always a good place to start.
Now, to refer to this title. Contrary to the implications of some reviews, I saw no insulting of people with dwarfism or things that were too far fetched to be believable. Though there were parts of the story that might not be common in daily life, in today’s world, they’re not far fetched. Besides, if the books were written about common, every day things, we’d all guess the endings and, thus, sort of negate the point of reading a suspenseful mystery. Being an avid true crime fan, I can say I’ve read about things far more unbelievable that actually happened, in my lifetime, so though the stories might be uncommon, I find far fetched to be a stretch. With that said, I personally enjoyed this particular book quite a bit and I’d rank it in the top 5 of the series, thus far. A lot of things from past books are wrapped up nicely and I have a feeling that some of the negative energy between the main characters will dissipate, at least for a bit, in upcoming titles. Let me also add, I’m not complaining about the friction between characters. People in any kind of relationship, whether it be family, friends, lovers, etc go through tough patches. Hence, if there was never any drama it would be hard for these books to be believable.
Something else that I found to be a positive was that I felt like the ending wasn’t rushed this time as it has been in some previous titles. I felt we got a good wrap up and weren’t left feeling that pieces of the puzzle were missing. We get time to absorb what happened before the title ends.
As far as the performance, I was glad to have Kate Reading narrating again, though I do still find some of her pronunciations odd. Even so, I’m getting used to it and it’s nothing that I would take performance stars for. She does a great job switching between the characters and giving them voices that match with what you’d imagine they sound like. One small annoyance for me, in this title, was Lucy’s voice. It wasn’t that it was bad. It just felt different from Reading’s past portrayals. If you’re not listening to the series in quick succession, as I am, you probably won’t even notice.
Overall, if you like Cornwell and you like this series, I think you’ll enjoy Scarpetta. I can’t wait to see what the crew gets into next and I’m planning to start the next book as soon as I finish this review!
Side note: Being completely transparent, if you’ve read several of these books and didn’t enjoy them, you likely won’t enjoy this one either. I feel Cornwell is true to her writing style, story lines, and twists and turns, as well as her level of detail, constant changes in point of view, and character unraveling. If you don’t enjoy these things in one book from the series, you’re likely not going to enjoy them in another, just because the story line is different. A writer’s nuances are what makes a series flow and hold the reader’s attention for me. So, if you’re not fond of Cornwell’s style, naturally, you won’t suddenly like her titles just because of the story. I see a lot of reviews from the same readers saying they don’t like the way Cornwell does certain things, but then I see them reviewing the next title. And usually it’s another bad review. Because of that, I wanted to add this side note. These books, as I said, hold a lot of similarities when dealing with certain logistics, so, though you’ll get a different story each time, if those things are bothersome to you, this series is probably not for you. I hope this review was helpful.

Very interesting
This is one of the better books. The characters are definitely different, but you can finally see how the tragedies they have all endured are changing them and chinking their Armor. I really enjoyed this one.

Missed the Mark
This book was hard to listen too. The narration was bland, the story was just boring. I skipped through & finished listening because had hoped it would get better. ugh.

Compelling characters!
Interesting and exciting storyline. This is my 9th or so in the Scarpetta series. Loves the exciting and unexpected ending!

Great narrator, but should learn to pronounce medical terms properly
I love this narrator. But it drives me crazy when she miss pronounces medical terms, such as microscopy, especially when it is exclusively, supposed to be the voice of a prominent chief medical examiner, there are several medical terms that were butchered, and for those of us who know the actual pronunciations, and who also may be grammar Nazi’s, it was maddening.
However, for some reason in this particular, Scarpetta book, sounds like a zombie pumped up with Thorazine….

Scarpetta for the win
There are so many twists and turns in this story that I couldn't figure out who was doing what. It was an intriguing storyline involving the internet and how evil it can be if used for terrible intentions. I like that the whole group around Scarpetta and Benton can put past feelings aside in order to solve this crime. As always, Kate Reading does a fantastic narration.
