The inspiration for the hit Amazon Prime Video series Scarpetta–starring Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis!
From #1 New York Times bestselling author and “queen of forensic fiction” (Los Angeles Times) Patricia Cornwell comes Postmortem, the groundbreaking thriller that introduced Dr. Kay Scarpetta and redefined the crime genre.
A killer is stalking the streets of Richmond, Virginia. When the bodies begin to mount, Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta is pulled into a chilling forensic investigation that blends high-stakes forensics with nerve-shattering suspense. Armed with cutting-edge science and unflinching resolve, Scarpetta must navigate hostile forces both inside and outside the investigation–because someone isn’t just trying to hide the truth. They’re trying to kill her.
Cornwell’s gift for combining expert-level criminology with bone-chilling suspense makes this thriller a true modern classic. Relentlessly paced and shockingly prescient, Postmortem is the electrifying first chapter in the Scarpetta series–still as razor-sharp and relevant as ever.
