About the Books:
From Potter's Field introduces Kay Scarpetta as Christmas fades into a crucible of crime, where a naked body in Central Park tests her resolve and expertise. Cause of Death plunges Scarpetta into icy waterways and a relentless hunt through the year's darkest chapters, combining clinical precision with nerve-wracking suspense.

Point of Origin follows a Virginia farmhouse fire to a chilling discovery, demanding forensic interpretation amid escalating danger. Black Notice sends Scarpetta to the open-water perimeter of a dangerous case, where a sealed cargo container and a stowaway’s remains unravel a complex web of crime and consequence. Cornwell balances grisly realism with sharp wit, crafting credible investigative procedures and anchoring each crisis in Scarpetta’s professional integrity. The tone blends clinical insight with human vulnerability, ensuring readers feel the weight of each decision and the gravity of every clue.
