Description
The next installment in the popular Kay Scarpetta series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell.
Nobel laureate and advisor to the White House Sal Giordano is found dead in the middle of an abandoned theme park. When Virginia’s chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta is alerted about the case, she’s warned that the victim is someone she knows. When she hears who it is, she’s devastated.
While teaching in Rome for a summer during the early days of her career, she met Giordano. What began as an intense love affair evolved into a life long friendship, and now he’s suddenly and bizarrely dead. Scarpetta’s Secret Service investigator niece Lucy says that it appears he was dropped out of an unidentified flying craft, his skin red from some type of radiation.
When Scarpetta does the autopsy, she finds yet another inexplicable surprise. While it becomes increasingly suspicious that otherworldly forces could be responsible for Giordano’s death, she detects the presence of a more likely earthbound explanation that in her mind is far more evil.

Description
"Summoned to an unnerving, abandoned theme park to retrieve a body, Dr. Kay Scarpetta is devastated to learn that the victim is a man she once loved. While teaching in Rome during the early days of her career, Scarpetta had an intense love affair with Sal Giordano that led to a lifelong friendship. The murder scene is bizarre, with a crop circle of petals around the body, and Giordano's skin is strangely red. Scarpetta's niece Lucy believes he was dropped from an unidentified flying craft. Scarpetta knows an autopsy can reveal the dead's secrets, but she is shocked to find her friend seems to have deliberately left her a clue"--,Provided by publisher.
