La doctora Scarpetta se enfrenta a uno de los desafíos más difíciles de su carrera.

La médica forense Kay Scarpetta está trabajando en la escena de una muerte sumamente sospechosa en Cambridge, Massachusetts, cuando recibe en su móvil un mensaje urgente, que contiene un enlace. Se trata de un vídeo de vigilancia de hace casi veinte años, en el que aparece su sobrina Lucy, un genio de la informática, realizando actividades muy sospechosas. Al primer vídeo le siguen otros, y la doctora Scarpetta se ve obligada a reconocer que la vida de la joven, a la que ha criado y querido como a una hija, está rodeada de secretos.

Patricia Cornwell lanza a Kay Scarpetta y otros inolvidables personajes como su esposo Benton Wesley, del FBI, el detective Pete Marino y la propia Lucy, a una intensa odisea que incluye la misteriosa muerte de la hija de un magnate de Hollywood y una búsqueda entre los restos de un avión siniestrado en las profundidades del Triángulo de las Bermudas.

Mientras tanto, alguien con una mentalidad diabólica, casi inhumana, está tejiendo una trama que podría destruir la carrera y a los seres queridos de KayScarpetta, y llevar a su sobrina a prisión el resto de su vida.

La crítica ha dicho...
«Oscura e ingeniosamente urdida.»
Booklist

«Cornwell construye el argumento con notable control, y lo mantiene firmemente enfocado en sus sólidos personajes.»
PublishersWeekly

«Otra historia turbulenta, cruda y realista de la magistral Cornwell. Concisa e intrincada, caótica y visceral, resulta plenamente satisfactoria.»
KirkusReviews

«Una vez que Scarpetta decide descubrir los secretos de Lucy, la novela se convierte en un thriller psicológico.»
The New York Times Book Review

«Vertiginosa y sumamente entretenida, plena de suspense y giros sorprendentes.»
Providence Journal

In 1990, Patricia Cornwell sold her first novel, Postmortem, while working at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Richmond, Virginia. An auspicious debut, it went on to win the Edgar, Creasey, Anthony, and Macavity Awards as well as the French Prix du Roman d’Aventure prize—the first book ever to claim all these distinctions in a single year. Growing into an international phenomenon, the Scarpetta series won Cornwell the Sherlock Award for best detective created by an American author, the Gold Dagger Award, the RBA Thriller Award, and the Medal of Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters for her contributions to literary and artistic development.

Today, Cornwell’s novels and iconic characters are known around the world. Beyond the Scarpetta series, Cornwell has written the definitive nonfiction account of Jack the Ripper’s identity, cookbooks, a children’s book, a biography of Ruth Graham, and two other fictional series based on the characters Win Garano and Andy Brazil. While writing Quantum, Cornwell spent two years researching space, technology, and robotics at Captain Calli Chase’s home base, NASA’s Langley Research Center, and studied cutting-edge law enforcement and security techniques with the Secret Service, the US Air Force, NASA Protective Services, Scotland Yard, and Interpol.

Cornwell was born in Miami. She grew up in Montreat, North Carolina, and now lives and works in Boston and Los Angeles.

Lo mismo de Carrie, ya parece una telenovela. No me gusta Marino, es grosero, irrespetuoso y Scarpetta le da mucha importancia a él, también me doy cuenta (a través de todas las serie Scarpetta)(leí las 24 novelas), que le tiene casi miedo, No Le Pone En Su Sitio cuando él le habla irrespetuosamente. Lo que disfruto mucho es cuando Kay y Benton están a solas, disfrutando de sus vida en casa, solos...

Kay and Lucy, great characters. Cornwell, good writer. Inhumano, good novel, not the best of Cornwell's, but it's worth to read.

Me gustan los libros de Cornwell, pero este me aburrió. Esta lleno de conjeturas, es confuso, es una Scarpetta más ambivalente que en otras novelas y el problema de Carrie parece no tener fin. Aburre.

Inhumano. Me resultó demasiado largo y repetitivo. Para ni siquiera llegar a un final real. Me gustan mucho los libros de las series pero este me desilusiono bastante

Me encanta el libro, lo único malo es el final abierto que te lleva al siguiente, algo que luego es imposible de leer porque no está publicado en español después de tantos años. Sigo la serie de esta escritora desde el primer libro y ahora no puedo terminarla.
