  • Dead on Arrival? Patricia Cornwell's Andy Garcia Series

    Dead on Arrival? Patricia Cornwell's Andy Garcia Series

    Karen Patrick Knutsen Dead on Arrival? Patricia Cornwell’s Andy Garcia Series Introduction In 1990, Patricia Cornwell made her debut in crime fiction with her first Kay Scarpetta novel, Postmortem. Scarpetta was one of the first crime heroines who worked as a forensic pathologist, and Cornwell was able to draw on her own career as a crime reporter and her six-year stint working in a morgue to create her fictional world. The popularity of the ten-book Scarpetta series made her the number one best-selling female crime writer in the United States in the 1990s. The Scarpetta novels were popular because of their fascinating forensic details and feminist sub-text. Cornwell created a heroine who is exaggerat- edly exceptional. Kay Scarpetta is beautiful, but she is also a qualified fo- rensic pathologist, criminal lawyer and expert witness. She does academic research and whips up gourmet meals in her spare time. Yet she is still only in her early forties. The fact that Scarpetta works as heroine for most read- ers, in spite of her superhuman qualities, says a lot about how women’s roles have changed in the past decades. Most readers were pleased with the role reversal: an empowered woman leading the battle against evil. Fur- thermore, Cornwell thematizes gay rights in her first series, since Kay’s beloved niece Lucy gradually grows to accept her gay identity. Although Kay sympathizes with her niece, she tends to focus on the problematic as- pects of a gay lifestyle, and the Scarpetta novels thus remain fully anchored within the conservative, patriarchal worldview of the classic crime genre.
