DEPRAVED HEART (2015) Dr. Kay Scarpetta is working a suspicious death scene in Cambridge, Massachusetts when an emergency alert sounds on her phone. A video link lands in her text messages and seems to be from her computer genius niece Lucy. But how can it be? It’s clearly a surveillance film of Lucy taken almost twenty years ago. As Scarpetta watches she begins to learn frightening secrets about her niece, whom she has loved and raised like a daughter. That film clip and then others sent soon after raise dangerous legal implications that increasingly isolate Scarpetta and leave her confused, worried, and not knowing where to turn. She doesn’t know whom she can tell – not her FBI husband Benton Wesley or her investigative partner Pete Marino. Not even Lucy. In this new novel, Cornwell launches these unforgettable characters on an intensely psychological odyssey that includes the mysterious death of a Hollywood mogul’s daughter, aircraft wreckage on the bottom of the sea in the Bermuda Triangle, a grisly gift left in the back of a crime scene truck, and videos from the past that threaten to destroy Scarpetta’s entire world and everyone she loves.

  • 51 Dissection of Patricia Cornwell's Feminist Woman
    JOURNAL OF ENGLISH STUDIES - VOLUME 10 (2012), 51-64 DISSECTION OF PATRICIA CORNWELL’S FEMINIST WOMAN DETECTIVE KAY SCARPETTA CARME FARRÉ-VIDAL University of Lleida ABSTRACT. This analysis of Kay Scarpetta acknowledges the importance of feminism in the identity of this woman detective. Kay Scarpetta contests patriarchy from the root: she is a forensic anthropologist with the necessary intellectual abilities and expertise for the pursuit of criminals. She has the power to solve the murder, the patriarchal privilege enjoyed by the traditional male detective, but her characterisation retains feminine characteristics, too: she can admit to be afraid in the face of danger and she cares for victims, those lying on her autopsy table – many of whom are women – but also the ones left behind. Kay Scarpetta’s identity leads her to expose the forms that women’s victimisation can take in a society based on prioritising men’s privileges. The obstacles that Kay Scarpetta has to overcome in order to expose patriarchy will not discourage her, though, since her ultimate goal is to help dignity and equality prevail. Keywords: Feminist detective fiction, Kay Scarpetta, equality, patriarchy, abuse of power, women’s victimisation. 51 Journal of English Studies, vol. 10 (2012) 51-64 CARME FARRÉ-VIDAL DISECCIÓN DEL FEMINISMO DE KAY SCARPETTA, LA MUJER DETECTIVE DE PATRICIA CORNWELL RESUMEN. Este análisis de Kay Scarpetta reconoce la importancia del feminismo en la identidad de esta mujer detective. Kay Scarpetta se opone al patriarcado desde la raíz: es una antropóloga forense con la habilidad intelectual y conocimientos necesarios para la persecución de los criminales.

    Kay Scarpetta Series Volume 6 FROM POTTER’S FIELD Patricia Cornwell And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground. -Genesis 4:10 'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS He walked with sure steps through snow, which was deep in Central Park, and it was late now, but he was not certain how late. Toward the Ramble rocks were black beneath stars, and he could hear and see his breathing because he was not like anybody else. Temple Gault had always been magical, a god who wore a human body. He did not slip as he walked, for example, when he was quite certain others would, and he did not know fear. Beneath the bill of a baseball cap, his eyes scanned. In the spot - and he knew precisely where it was - he squatted, moving the skirt of a long black coat out of the way. He set an old army knapsack in the snow and held his bare bloody hands in front of him, and though they were cold, they weren't impossibly cold. Gault did not like gloves unless they were made of latex, which was not warm, either. He washed his hands and face in soft new snow, then patted the used snow into a bloody snowball. This he placed next to the knapsack because he could not leave them. He smiled his thin smile. He was a happy dog digging on the beach as he disrupted snow in the park, eradicating footprints, looking for the emergency door.

  • Postmortem Discussion Questions by Patricia Cornwell
    Postmortem Discussion Questions by Patricia Cornwell Author Bio: (http://www.litlovers.com/reading-guides/13-fiction/826-postmortem-cornwell?start=1) Before becoming one of the most widely recognized, respected, and read writers in contemporary crime fiction, Patricia Cornwell worked as a police reporter for the Charlotte Observer and as a computer analyst in the chief medical examiner's office in Virginia. During this period of her life, Cornwell observed literally hundreds of autopsies. "Most of these crime scene shows...are what I call ‘Harry Potter' policing," she said in a candid, heated interview. "They're absolutely fantasy. And the problem is the general public watches these, 60 million people a week or whatever, and they think what they're seeing is true." Cornwell introduced medical examiner Kay Scarpetta in her first novel, Postmortem in 1990. Postmortem, Cornwell’s debut book, is the only novel by a first-time author to ever win five major mystery awards in a single year. There are currently 22 books in the Kay Scarpetta series. In addition, Cornwell writes more lighthearted cop capers in her "Andy Brazil & Judy Hammer" series. She also has written a number of nonfiction books, including a Scarpetta cookbook. Characters: Kay Scarpetta - Chief Medical Examiner - Richmond, VA. Pete Marino - Detective Sergeant in the Richmond Police Department. In charge of investigating the murders in Postmortem. Alvin Amburgey - The County Commissioner and Kay’s boss. Bill Boltz - The Commonwealth Attorney and Kay’s semi-secret boyfriend. Dorothy Farinelli - Kay's sister and mother of Lucy. Writes children’s books, but doesn’t have much time for her daughter.

  • The Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland: Technology Enablement For
    The Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland: Technology Enablement for a Frictionless Smart Border By Nigel Taylor, Visiting Industry Fellow with the Centre for Brexit Studies The sensitive issue of an invisible border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland continues to be a stumbling block in negotiations between the EU and the United Kingdom. Commentary on the proposed ‘smart border’ has ranged from the hysterical1, to the thoughtful2. But just what is the problem? Once the UK leaves the EU single market and the customs union they will be classified as a ‘third country’3, it is then for the UK and EU to negotiate a free trade agreement. From the EU perspective, if the UK exits under WTO4 rules it is assumed that goods imported into Ireland must to be stopped at the border and checked for EU standards compliance, and due process is followed for point of origin and tariffs. It is also assumed that citizens must show their passports upon entry into Ireland. For numerous reasons, this creates many potential issues and is seen as a return to ‘the bad old days’ by many north and south of the border. Therefore, the UK government is seeking to find an arrangement that can avoid third country status with the EU, while also meeting the different mandates of Brexit, such as seeking free trade deals elsewhere. One such proposal to the EU is to implement a soft border in the island of Ireland. The concept of a ‘soft’ EU border is contentious instigating much political posturing. Katie Daughen, head of Brexit policy at the British Irish Chamber of Commerce has been much quoted stating “It is a fallacy that the UK can trade independently with non-EU nations while maintaining an open border on the island of Ireland”5.

  • Irish Immigration Records
    IRELAND IMMIGRATION AND EMIGRATION DAVID E. RENCHER, AG®, CG®, FUGA, FIGRS SPONSORED BY THE TULSA CITY COUNTY LIBRARY GENEALOGY CENTER __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Irish immigration to the America's has been marked by peak periods of mass migration in history. Major historical events have triggered the influx of large numbers of Irish immigrants seeking better wages, lifestyles, and political or religious freedom. Careless stereotypes have been attached to the immigrants and their methods of travel and life styles, but there were numerous ways to immigrate to the America's and each course has the potential to create the records needed to identify a home county or parish. Ideally, this subject should be treated by time period and religion, since these variables differentiate the effectiveness a researcher will have in connecting an emigrant with his place of origin. Generally, there have been emigrants from the whole of Ireland from the early 1600's. Irish immigration paralleled emigration from the rest of the British Isles with two notable exceptions. First, the emigration of Scots-Irish into the America's in the early-to-mid-1700's and the famine-initiated emigration of mostly Catholics in the mid-1800's. This lecture focuses on the many record sources in America and Ireland which may be used to link an emigrant with their destination in the America's. RESEARCH IN THE AMERICA’S The research techniques for determining the place of origin for an Irish immigrant involve many of the same methodologies which would be used to trace any immigrant. The focus of this lecture will be on sources which have proven effective in tracing Irish immigrants.
