A profoundly original novel that takes the reader deeper into Scarpetta's heart and soul than ever before.
The reader inconceivably finds Virginia's Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta an object of suspicion and criminal investigation. And the nightmare perpetuated on Scarpetta's doorstep continues as she discovers that the so-called Werewolf murders may have extended to New York City and into the darkest corners of her past.
