Dr Kay Scarpetta is in New York, working for the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. But in no time at all, she is witness to a string of dramatic and unsettling events. She is asked live on air about the sensational case of Hannah Starr, who has vanished and is presumed dead. Moments later, during the same broadcast, she receives a startling call-in from a former psychiatric patient. Soon the apparent threat on Scarpetta's life finds her embroiled in a deadly plot that includes a famous actor accused of an unthinkable sex crime and the disappearance of a beautiful millionairess with whom her niece Lucy seems to have shared a secret past...
