Summary: "Patricia Cornwell lights a fire under familiar characters--and sparks her hottest adventure in years," wrote People magazine about Point of Origin, the instant #1 bestseller by America's premier crime writer. "Evil always smolders when it seems to be doused," said The Atlanta Constitution. "Scarpettans know to keep their security systems armed until the next installment." Now Cornwell delivers a high-stakes Kay Scarpetta novel with an intrigue that will take Kay an ocean's length away from home. The nightmare begins when a cargo ship arriving at Richmond's Deep Water Terminal from Belgium is discovered to be transporting a locked, sealed container holding the decomposed remains of a stowaway. The autopsy performed by Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta initially reveals neither a cause of death nor an identification. But the victim's personal effects and an odd tattoo take Scarpetta on a hunt for information that leads to INTERPOL's headquarters in Lyon, France, where she receives critical instructions: go to the Paris morgue to receive forbidden, secret evidence and then return to Virginia to carry out a mission.

  • Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E a LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE and SOCIETY
    Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E A LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE AND SOCIETY Series Editor Stuart Murray, University of Leeds Robert McRuer, George Washington University This series provides a ground-breaking and innovative selection of titles that showcase the newest interdisciplinary research on the cultural representations of health and disability in the contemporary social world. Bringing together both subjects and working methods from literary studies, film and cultural studies, medicine and sociology, ‘Representations’ is scholarly and accessible, addressed to researchers across a number of academic disciplines, and prac- titioners and members of the public with interests in issues of public health. The key term in the series will be representations. Public interest in ques- tions of health and disability has never been stronger, and as a consequence cultural forms across a range of media currently produce a never-ending stream of narratives and images that both reflect this interest and generate its forms. The crucial value of the series is that it brings the skilled study of cultural narratives and images to bear on such contemporary medical concerns. It offers and responds to new research paradigms that advance understanding at a scholarly level of the interaction between medicine, culture and society; it also has a strong commitment to public concerns surrounding such issues, and maintains a tone and point of address that seek to engage a general audience.

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.
