Last Precinct

Patricia Cornwell


When Kay Scarpetta is mandated to investigate the 400-year-old violent death of one of America's first settlers at Jamestown, Va., it seems like the perfect match: modern technology's savviest avatar versus an age-old crime. Kay's involvement in the case attracts headlines - and more - the unwelcome ire of a person or persons unknown. In a case ranging from an 18th century murder to mortal risk in present day, The Last Precinct pits Kay against a rogue enemy who will stop at nothing to eliminate her.
