Kay Scarpetta's lover with a haunting letter from beyond the grave. Benton was brutally murdered in Cornwell's last novel, and Kay, her police buddy Capt. Pete Marino, and her niece Lucy are still trying to come to terms with his death. They don't need this just- delivered letter, written by Benton a Black Notice ago, to stir up their emotions. Benton is never far from their thoughts. In fact, his absence has become an overwhelming presence in their lives. So, when Christmas roles around, Kay finds herself even more depressed and turns to her work for a diversion. When a decomposed body arrives in Richmond Terminal in a container on a cargo ship from Belgium, Kay goes into high gear. Her initial autopsy finds no cause of death or ID, so the corpse remains a "black notice," or unidentified body. Kay has little to go on besides a strange tattoo on the body and a message scrawled on the container: "Bon voyage, le loup-garou" Le loup garou is French for the werewolf. Mon dieu! As if this bizarre case is not enough to handle, Kay must confront a new Police chief, Diane Bray, who demotes her pal Marino and wants her fired. She must also deal with Black Notice new female detective who's particularly good at messing up a crime scene. Then there's the situation with Lucy, an agent for the Black Notice of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms in Miami, who's working on a dangerous drug smuggling case, and still angry about Benton's death is ripe for a fight and maybe a little trigger-happy as well. And, let's not forget that Kay's lab assistant, Chuck, may be stealing drugs and selling them Black Notice the Black Notice market and that someone is breaking into Kay's e-mail and masquerading Black Notice the good doc during Internet chats. At this point, poor Kay probably wouldn't be surprised if Santa left coal in her stocking as well. The container man case eventually takes Kay and Marino to France where they have a clandestine meeting with Interpol. In The City of Lights, Kay is faced with the prospect of breaking the law herself in order to solve this case Black Notice the killer strikes again. She's also faced with the prospect of breaking with the past, as a new love interest comes into her life. And, in Paris, Marino will deal with his own feelings about Benton's death when clues arise to suggest that Benton may still be alive. Cornwell is one of the best when it comes to writing about autopsy procedures and forensics, and Black Notice in top form here. Black Notice explores fascinating territory Black Notice Dr. Kay must grasp at even the Black Notice remote forensic straw to piece Black Notice frightening case together. Taking Kay and Marino to Paris is a nice new touch, although some Scarpetta fans may find Kay's Paris romance happening a Black Notice too fast and may also wish that Marino's Benton-may-still-be-alive theory was taken a little further. But, fans will nonetheless be delighted with Cornwell's latest and will no doubt anxiously await her next one. Black Notice by Patricia Cornwell. The Book Report Network. Skip to main content.

The decomposed remains of a stowaway lead Dr. Black Notice Christmastime in Richmond, Virginia, but no one seems merry--least of all Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta, back for her 10th outing as a crime-solving coroner. Actress Kate Reading also returns, reading her third unabridged audio for Patricia Cornwell's death-drenched series. This one finds Scarpetta still recovering from the murder of her lover and in a generally foul mood as an investigation of a badly decomposed body leads her to INTERPOL, and Black Notice, Paris. Series regulars Police Detective Pete Marino, recently demoted, and niece Lucy are in equally cantankerous Black Notice of mind, resulting in more blue language than Cornwell Black Notice may be used to.

Black Notice (Kay Scarpetta, #10) by Patricia Cornwell In this 1 New York Times bestseller Dr. Kay Scarpetta is on a deadly mission that will pull her in two opposite directions: toward protecting her career or toward the truth Remains were all that was left of the stowaway. The decomposed body gives Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta no clues to its identity—or the cause of death. It's like a splash of cold water on a hot day to Black Notice plunged, after the irritating third-person satire of Cornwell's last novel, Southern Crossback into the bracing narration of medical examiner Kay Scarpetta. Black Notice in the nine Scarpettas past Point of Origin, etc. Evil wears several faces here, from petty Black Notice monstrous. Most insidious is the office sabotage--insubordination, thefts, fraudulent e-mails--that's making the grieving Kay look as if she's lost her grip since her lover's murder in Point of Origin. More destructive are the overt attempts by calculating Richmond, Va. Pete Black Notice. Then there's Black Notice wild rage at life that's consuming Kay's niece, a DEA agent. Finally--the plot wire that binds the sometimes scattered plot--there are the mutilation killings by the French serial killer self-styled "Loup-Garou"--werewolf. The forensic sequences boom with authority; the Black Notice action sequences explode on the page--in the finale, overbearingly so; the interplay between Kay and Marino is boisterous as always, and there's an atmospheric sidetrip to Paris and an affecting romantic misadventure for lonely Kay. A thunderhead of disquietude hangs over Black Notice compulsively readable novel, sometimes Black Notice storms of suspense; but to Cornwell's considerable credit, the unease arises ultimately not from the Black Notice potential for violence, but from a more profound horror: the vulnerability of a good woman like Kay to a world beset by the corrupt, the cruel, the demonic. Good read but excessive scatological language. This author could probably do better without all the f'ing and blind'ing. Publisher Description. Customer Reviews See All. The Bone Bed.
