Zustand: Very Good. : En Point of Origin, Patricia Cornwell regresa a los orígenes de la carrera de la doctora Kay Scarpetta con una historia que explora el lado más oscuro del alma humana. En Richmond, la doctora forense Kay Scarpetta participa en la investigación de una serie de incendios provocados que tienen un denominador común: en los cuerpos calcinados de las víctimas siempre se encuentran restos de magnesio. El caso podría ser uno más en la larga lista de crímenes que Scarpetta ha tenido que afrontar, si no fuera porque estas últimas investigaciones la están llevando a una inquietante evidencia: los sucesos muestran características que vinculan su pasado con el de Carrie Grethen -la psicópata que había mantenido una relación con su sobrina Lucy- y con un asesino en serie que nunca llegó a ser capturado. Y lo que es peor, Carrie Grethen, en paradero desconocido desde que logró escapar de un centro psiquiátrico de Nueva York, acaba de poner en marcha un juego maquiavélico cuyo objetivo es saldar una deuda de juego pendiente con sus contrincantes, Kay y Lucy, a quienes responsabiliza de su actual condición.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. Carrie Grethen, partner in crime to William Temple Gault, has escaped from prison. Before she does so she sends Kay Scarpetta a message which makes it all too clear that she blames her (and Lucy, and Benton Wesley, and Pete Marino) for Gault's death, and has specific - if cryptic - plans for revenge. Wary and quite shaken, Scarpetta still has a professional life to get on with, including investigating the death of an unknown female in a fire which has destroyed the isolated farmhouse home of her erstwhile political boss. The post mortem reveals that the woman was stabbed before the fire was started, but while Scarpetta and her colleagues are puzzling over means and motive they are called out to the scene of another fire and another murder. The pattern is the same, the answers as elusive and then Benton disappears while following up a tip-off. Suddenly, and with appalling clarity, Scarpetta sees that Carrie has set up a scenario in which she can manipulate them all and in which she appears to have the inescapable upper hand. A novel of high suspense from the acknowledged mistress of the forensic thriller.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Patricia Cornwell's novels about Kay Scarpetta, forensic pathologist and nemesis of arrogant criminals, have long since become one of those series which admirers buy automatically, knowing and liking what they are going to get. For once, Scarpetta is learning, as well as lecturing, as she finds herself involved with a series of deaths by fire, and a killer who has learned to make her job difficult. The series' running villainess, the charming malign Carrie Grethen, once the lover of Scarpetta's niece, has escaped from custody with vengeance on her mind. Cornwell's own troubles of recent years find an echo in Carrie's media offensive--Holmes never had to cope with Moriarty writing to The Times to say that it was all a frame-up. As always, the strong point of Patricia Cornwell's books is less the plotting than the exposition of technical details. She has the gift of fascinating with apparent trivia--just what are the metal shavings and clumps of ash caught in the victims' hair?--that turn out to lead in to the stuff of nightmares. Cornwell's reinvention of the forensic thriller combines expertise with anger at the inventiveness of human evil. --Roz Kaveney. DJ. 342 pages.…
