Imprint: Berkley, 1995 Cornwell ( Body of Evidence ; All That Remains ) casts a wider, surer narra tive net in the latest case set for her increasingly complex heroine, Kay S carpetta, Chief Medical Examiner for the Commonwealth of Virginia. As an FB I consultant, Scarpetta investigates the North Carolina murder of 11-year-o ld Emily Steiner, whose mutilation suggests the M.O. of an escaped killer m et previously in Cruel and Unusual. Forensic clues from the body's second a utopsy prompt Scarpetta to request that certain experiments be made at the University of Tennessee's Decay Research Facility, known as the Body Farm. Meanwhile, she, Pete Marino of the Richmond, Va., police, and her new love interest, FBI Unit Chief Benton Wesley investigate the apparent suicide (fr om autoerotic asphyxiation) of the local FBI agent in charge of the case. T hen, Scarpetta's computer- whiz niece Lucy, working at FBI headquarters at Q uantico, is charged with violating security. During her travels between Nor th Carolina and Virginia, Scarpetta worries about both the less-than-forthc oming Lucy and Marino, who becomes emotionally entangled with Emily's beaut iful stricken mother. Results at the Body Farm lead her to a convincing, if abrupt, resolution. Deeper characterization and a more intricate plot mark this fifth in a consistently compelling series., Near Fine Stock number: RWARE0000000457. ISBN: 9780425147627

The new Kay Scarpetta novel from the world's #1 bestselling crime writer. After working one of the worst mass killings in U.S. history, Scarpetta ret urns home to Cambridge, Massachusetts. Exhausted and ill, she's recovering at home when she receives an unsettling call. The body of a young woman has been discovered on the Massachusetts Institut e of Technology's rugby field. The victim, a graduate student named Gail Sh ipton, is oddly draped in unusual cloth and posed in a way that is too deli berate to be the killer's first strike. A preliminary examination in the se a of red mud where the body has been left also reveals a bizarre residue th at fluoresces blood red, emerald green and sapphire blue. Physical evidence links the case to a series of uniquely weird homicides in Washington, D.C., where Scarpetta's FBI husband has been deployed to help capture a serial killer dubbed the Capital Murderer. The cases all connect and yet seem to conflict. Gail Shipton was murdered for financial gain--or was she? It will require the usual ensemble of characters to find out the truth, including Scarpetta's sidekick Pete Marino, who has undergone a drastic change in his life that places him center stage in a Cambridge investigation that puts everyone at risk. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000034424.

Imprint: Berkley, 1996 Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta plays a tense cat-and-mouse game with a serial killer, an old enemy, in her sixth outing (following The Body Farm ), and he has her badly rattled. The story begins as a rotten Christmas for Scarpetta: Temple Gault has struck again, leaving a naked, apparently home less girl shot in Central Park on Christmas Eve; Scarpetta, as the FBI's co nsulting pathologist, is called in. Later, a transit cop is found shot in a subway tunnel, and, back home in Richmond, Va., the body of a crooked loca l sheriff is delivered to Scarpetta's own morgue by the elusive, brilliant Gault. The normally unflappable Scarpetta finds herself hyperventilating an d nearly shooting her own niece. In the end, some ingenious forensic detect ive work and a visit to the killer's agonized family set up a high-tech cli max back in the New York subway, which Gault treats as the Phantom of the O pera did the sewers of Paris, and Scarpetta, stuck with her own family trou bles and involved in a rather glum affair with a colleague, seems to be run ning low on energy. Still, this is a compelling, fast-moving tale., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000009554. ISBN: 9780425154090

Imprint: Berkley Pub Group, 2002 Be aware: this is not your typical Patricia Cornwell novel. Not only is the re no Kay Scarpetta, but Isle of Dogs is a comic romp, a real departure for this author. It does center around a couple of characters from past books- -police chief Judy Hammer and reporter-turned-cop Andy Brazil of Hornet's N est and Southern Cross. But the plot, style, and tone will remind you more of Carl Hiaasen's dark comedies. The madcap doings get underway when the addled, nearly blind governor of Virginia confusedly launches a speed-trap program on isolated Tangier Island, whose prickly, eccentric residents promptly attempt secession. Cornwell adeptly interweaves other crisscrossing plot lines involving a gang of street- stupid thugs gunning for Hammer and Brazil, an angel-faced serial killer, a kidnapped dog, and more. She does miss a few beats: the pacing sags during certain episodes, and at times the writing strains so hard for laughs that instead it draws winces. Nonetheless, Isle of Dogs is for the most part a funny, diverting read and a refreshing departure for Cornwell. --Nicholas H.

Imprint: Berkley, 2003 A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: Jack the Ripper was renowned artist Walter Sickert (1860-1942) according to Cornwell, in case anyone hasn't yet heard. The evidence Cornwell accumulates toward that conclusion in this brilliant, personal, gripping book is very strong, and will persuade many. In May 2001, Cornwell took a tour of Scotland Yard that interested her in the Ripper case, and in Sickert as a suspect. A look at Sickert's "violent" paintings sealed her interest, and she became determined to apply, for the first time ever, modern investigatory and forensic techniques to the crimes that horrified London more than 100 years ago. The book's narrative is complex, as Cornwell details her emotional involvement in the case; re-creates life in Victorian times, particularly in the late 1880s, and especially the cruel existence of the London poor; offers expertly observed scenarios of how, based on the evidence, the killings occurred and the subsequent investigations were conducted; explains what was found by the team of experts she hired; and gives a psycho-biography of Sickert. The book is filled with newsworthy revelations, including the successful use of DNA analysis to establish a link between an envelope mailed by the Ripper and two envelopes used by Sickert. There are also powerful comparisons made between Sickert's drawing style and that of the Ripper; between words and turns of phrases used by both men; and much other circumstantial evidence. Also newsworthy is Cornwell's conclusion that Sickert continued to kill long after the Ripper supposedly lay down his blade, reaping dozens of victims over his lon, Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000018182.

Imprint: Berkley, 2006 It's not often a crime novel offers such a smorgasbord of oddball elements, including autopsy advice, methods of combating tree blight, the use of spi ders in sadomasochist torture and couples covering the sexual and psycholog ical waterfronts. There's even a little nasty fun at the expense of televis ion psychoanalysts. With geographic locations switching slightly faster tha n the speed of sound, it's to Reading's credit that she smoothes out the ul tra rumpled excesses of Cornwell's mind-boggling plot and takes full advant age of the yarn's narrator-friendly present tense. Having given voice to se veral earlier books in the series, she's got the main characters down cold. Her Dr. Kay Scarpetta is all snarky professional reserve and personal inse curity. Self-loathing lesbian niece Lucy, sounds properly troublesome and t roubled, with an added catch in the throat due to a secret she's keeping. P ete Marino, the bullet-headed, gym rat security chief of the Lucy-originate d National Forensic Academy, sounds so gruff and aggressive, he should be k ept on a chain leash. And Scarpetta's inamorato, Benton Wesley, whose study of mass murderers' brain patterns gives the novel its title, is, as his na me suggests, the very model of a dry, annoyingly passive-aggressive persona lity. The joke here- intended or not-is that the novel's protagonists are al most as mentally or emotionally disturbed as its homicidal villains. Cornwe ll seems to have grown weary of the lot of them. But there's still a flicke r of life left and Reading has the skill to make the most of it. Copyright ® Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Imprint: TIME WARNER BOOKS, 2005 Since Postmortem garnered critical acclaim and a record-breaking five award s for a first crime novel, the Scarpetta novels have often been imitated, b ut never bettered. Against her own judgement and the advice of Benton Wesle y and her niece, Lucy, Scarpetta agrees to return to Virginia as a consulta nt pathologist on a case involving the death of a fourteen- year-old girl. A ccompanied by Pete Marino she finds the once familiar territory of her morg ue and her department much changed, and the new Chief Medical Examiner trea ts her with disdain despite the obvious fact that he is in desperate need o f her expertise.
