Point of Origin (Kay Scarpetta) pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
A farmhouse destroyed by fire. A body amongst the ruins. Dr Kay Scarpetta, Chief Medical Examiner and consulting pathologist for the federal law enforcement agency ATF, is called out to a farmhouse in Virginia which has been destroyed by fire. In the ruins of the house she finds a body which tells a story of a violent and grisly murder. The fire has come at the same time as another, even more incendiary horror: Carrie Grethen, a killer who nearly destroyed the lives of Scarpetta and those closest to her, has escaped from a forensic psychiatric hospital. Her whereabouts is unknown, but her ultimate destination is not, for Carrie has begun to communicate with Scarpetta, conveying her deadly - if cryptic - plans for revenge. Chillingly mesmeric in tone, labyrinthine in structure, POINT OF ORIGIN is Patricia Cornwell at her most dazzling.

派翠西亞.康薇爾
出生於佛羅里達州的邁阿密,畢業後即嫁給年長她17歲的英國文學教授。她的第一份工作是主跑社會新聞的記者,1984年她在維吉尼亞州的法醫部門謀得一份工作當一名檢驗紀錄員。1984-86年間,康薇爾根據自身的法醫工作經驗寫下了3本小說,但卻處處碰壁。經過一番修改後,她終於在1990年出版了她的第一本偵探小說《屍體會說話》。這本書問世後一炮而紅,為她贏得1991年愛倫坡獎最佳年度新人獎、約翰•克雷西獎最佳新人獎、Anthony、Macavity獎,以及法國的Prix du Roman d'Adventurei獎。此後,康薇爾以女法醫為背景陸續寫了9本書,這些作品不僅是暢銷排行榜上的常客,也翻譯成多種語言,其中《From Potter's Field》還改拍成電影。
