Leaving behind her forensic pathology practice in South Carolina, Kay Scarpetta takes up an assignment in New York City, where the NYPD has asked her to examine an injured patient in a psychiatric ward.

He says his injuries were sustained in the course of a murder ...that he did not commit. Is Bane a criminally insane stalker who has fixed on Scarpetta? Or is his paranoid tale true, and it is he who is being spied on, followed and stalked by the actual killer? The only thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered ? and that more violent deaths will follow...

I loved this book! Sometimes Ms. Cornwell slips a little sometimes in her books, as if she's tired, but this one was terrific! I had a hard time putting it down!
Only complaint is that when I received this book, I found that it was a book club copy & the description didn't mention that. I would always want to know that before I purchase.
