书籍简介

畅销书作家帕特里夏·康薇尔的“凯·斯卡佩塔”系列第一部。斯卡佩塔的故事即将被搬上银幕，由妮可·基德曼和杰米·李·柯蒂斯主演。

《泰晤士报》称她为“美国令人不寒而栗的犯罪小说作家”。

弗吉尼亚州里士满市出现了一名连环杀手。三名女性在自己的卧室里惨遭杀害，她们被残忍地勒死。作案手法毫无规律：凶手似乎随机作案，但总是在周六清晨。

因此，当首席医疗官凯·斯卡佩塔医生在凌晨2点33分被叫醒时，她知道情况不妙：出现了第四名受害者。她担心，除非她能找到新的法医证据来帮助警方破案，否则接下来还会有更多人遇害。

但并非所有人都乐见一位女性担任如此重要的职位。甚至有人可能想要毁掉她的事业和名誉……

“斯卡佩塔”系列的下一部作品是《证据之躯》。全新力作《身份不明》现已上市！

'America's most chilling writer of crime fiction' The Times

A serial killer is on the loose in Richmond, Virginia. Three women have died, brutalised and strangled in their own bedroom. There is no pattern: the killer appears to strike at random - but always early on Saturday mornings.

So when Dr Kay Scarpetta, chief medical officer, is awakened at 2.33 am, she knows the news is bad: there is a fourth victim. And she fears now for those that will follow unless she can dig up new forensic evidence to aid the police.

But not everyone is pleased to see a woman in this powerful job. Someone may even want to ruin her career and reputation . . .

The next book in the Scarpetta series is Body of Evidence. And the brand-new instalment, Identity Unknown, is available now!
