THE TERRIFYING NEW SCARPETTA NOVEL FROM AMERICA'S #1 BESTSELLING CRIME WRITER
Predator by Patricia Cornwell -A Kay Scarpetta Novel (CD Abridged Edition)
Predator is the latest installment in the internationally acclaimed series of crime novels featuring the medical examiner, Dr Kay Scarpetta
Kay Scarpetta and her colleague Pete Marino investigate the case of a man killed by a shotgun blast to the chest, while a woman is trapped in an abandoned house in the South after being kidnapped by an unknown captor, and on Cape Cod, Kay's niece Lucy Farinelli begins to suspect that she has made a terrible mistake.
Dr. Kay Scarpetta, now freelancing with the National Forensic Academy in Florida, digs into a case more bizarre than any she has ever faced, one that has produced not only unusual physical evidence, but also tantalizing clues about the inner workings of an extremely cunning and criminal mind. She and her team – Pete Marino, Benton Wesley, and her niece Lucy – track the odd connections between several horrific crimes and the people who are the likely suspects. In Florida, Scarpetta is investigating the disappearance of four people who've been abducted from their quiet home. Then Marino finds something in a nearby house that stops him cold: a woman who has been viciously murdered in her bed. As one psychopath, safely behind bars and the subject of a classified scientific study at a Harvard- affiliated psychiatric hospital, teases Scarpetta with tips that could be fact – or fantasy – the number of killers on the loose seems to multiply.
PATRICIA CORNWELL
In 1990, Patricia Cornwell sold her first novel, Postmortem, while working at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Richmond, Virginia. An auspicious debut, it went on to win the Edgar, Creasey, Anthony, and Macavity Awards as well as the French Prix du Roman d’Aventure prize—the first book ever to claim all these distinctions in a single year. Growing into an international phenomenon, the Scarpetta series won Cornwell the Sherlock Award for best detective created by an American author, the Gold Dagger Award, the RBA Thriller Award, and the Medal of Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters for her contributions to literary and artistic development.
Today, Cornwell’s novels and iconic characters are known around the world. Beyond the Scarpetta series, Cornwell has written the definitive nonfiction account of Jack the Ripper’s identity, cookbooks, a children’s book, a biography of Ruth Graham, and two other fictional series based on the characters Win Garano and Andy Brazil. While writing Quantum, Cornwell spent two years researching space, technology, and robotics at Captain Calli Chase’s home base, NASA’s Langley Research Center, and studied cutting-edge law enforcement and security techniques with the Secret Service, the US Air Force, NASA Protective Services, Scotland Yard, and Interpol.
Cornwell was born in Miami. She grew up in Montreat, North Carolina, and now lives and works in Boston and Los Angeles.
