Cutting-edge
The queen of the forensic thriller
More than thirty years and twenty-six Scarpetta books later, Cornwell is still knocking it out of the park
One of the best crime writers writing today
Gripping . . . Sound the klaxon, Patricia Cornwell's brilliant chief medical examiner Dr Kay Scarpetta is back
Post-mortem scenes that [will] make fans of this long-running series salivate . . . Something to look forward to
The Agatha Christie of the DNA age
This is Scarpetta's 26th outing and the plotting remains every bit as fresh as when we were introduced to her
Cornwell's on blistering form and this absorbing thriller will keep you hooked
Astonishing . . . Thirty years on, there's still no other crime writer like her
When it comes to forensic sciences, nobody can touch Cornwell
Riveting
PRAISE FOR PATRICIA CORNWELL
Forget the pretenders. Cornwell reigns
Cornwell knows how to craft a mean page-turner and Livid is no exception
America's most stimulating and chilling writer of crime fiction
Slick, fast-paced and brilliant
I'm still seeing stars. A great thriller. One of the hardest things as a series writer is keeping your famous heroes fresh year after year. Kay Scarpetta is not only still fresh, she's the same grumpy, wonderful, riveting personality she's always been - a full-on human being - and she's only getting better with time. I love catching up with her every year
A pioneer of the genre of forensic psychological thriller
The top gun in this field
