Summary
Patricia Cornwell: Predator
Kay Scarpetta tries to spend a romantic weekend with Benton Wesley. No phone call will trigger an avalanche of events that will force them to postpone their vacation. Pete Marino will be unfamiliar with the case of surgeon Johnny Swift, who was found in his home, shot through the chest, just after the operation. At first glance, a classic suicide. But is that so? If not, who would want to kill a California neurosurgeon anyway, and why? In his fourth book in a row, starring Dr. Kay Scarpetta, we find all the characters that are dear to the hearts of readers of Cornwell's novels - Kay is now the head of the National Forensic Academy in Hollywood, Florida. There is, of course, Pete Marino, a former police detective from Virginia, who is also based in Florida, as the head of the Department of Investigations at the said academy and an honorary investigator in the Office of Medical Research.
