The Last Precinct

De: Patricia Cornwell

Narrado por: Kate Reading

The eleventh Scarpetta novel, in which the chief medical examiner is under a grand jury investigation for murder. She knows she's being framed, and she no longer knows who she can trust....

Physically and psychologically bruised by her encounter with the killer Chandonne, Dr. Kay Scarpetta has to leave her home in the hands of the police team investigating the attack. She finds shelter with an old friend, Anna Zenner, but it is not the haven of security she needs when she discovers that Anna has been subpoenaed to appear before a grand jury that is investigating Scarpetta for murder. Kay knows she is being framed, and she knows she can trust no one.

Meanwhile it appears that Chandonne killed a woman in New York before his murderous spree in Virginia, but when Scarpetta looks more closely into that case with New York prosecutor Jaime Berger, proof of his guilt is far from certain--in fact she begins to believe he may not be the perpetrator of any of the crimes of which he is accused. As she follows the forensic trail to the real killer, she gradually realizes that someone has been spinning a web for years with the aim of entrapping her. Who is it, and why are they so desperate to be rid of her?

Absolutely Fantastic! This is a MUST Audio.

If you are a series FAN..you will be CAPTIVATED .So Well done!! Do Not Miss.

Very good!

I love the Scarpetta series - this is another great one.

Can’t wait to start Blowfly

Engaging, entertaining read.

For those who love biologic science, complex story lines, and baffling cases.

This is packed with realistic characters who show a wide range of personality and weakness, some we care a lot about and others we love to despise. Criminal cases are puzzles worthy of Sir Doyle.

Not for the faint of heart. Excellent narration for the myriad of characters!

The Suspense!!!

This one really had me in a chokehold! By far my favorite Scarpetta book! Don’t skip this one!

Kay Scarpetta does it again

I felt the story started a bit slow, with Kay reminiscing of her dead lover & her dragging conversations with her psychiatrist friend. But once the story picked up, focusing on the latest murders, it go really good. I couldn’t stop listening! Love the Scarpetta series & all my favorite supporting characters.

Great story!

I enjoyed the mystery until the end. I appreciate the short stories in each book and the connections to the long stories that you need to read/listen to the books in order to catch all the links.

best of the series so far

best of the series so far. good story, entertaining, great intricacies. absolutely loved it.

Patricia is a Mystery Writing Ass

This book is off the chain! Suspense equal to Hitchcock!! Crime riddles hard to figure out and the ending exceptionally chilling! I have just found this author and cannot put her books down - the intellectual stimulation the truthfulness of character and the clear way of explaining events is so clear and deep! I love Kaye and want more — an exceptional writer intrigue and suspense over whelming — I’m a fan now and I give her ten stories A+ no matter who reads the books the story kept me riveted to my seat as if I was in a movie and yes I hollered at Marino!! I’ve read these 10 stories and will read the next one cause Ms. Cornwell is a writing ass as my pops would say! Great story — I do recommend d that if you have not ready anything by Ms Cornwell that you start with Book One and work your way up — it was quite remarkable to be in 1973 and see what went on during that time — and know I lived through that time and knew about the computer stuff and look at it today — anyway I’m going on to book 11. — a fantastic story and genius writer!! Enough said.

Fantastic

One of my all time favorites. The performance is fantastic
And the book
Is amazing

Exceptional

As always so good! I’m working my way through the Kay Scarpetta series. I loved the narration of this book. She has a way with changing her voice that you visualize another person speaking. The story was full of all sorts of twists and turns. Didn’t want to stop listening.
