Unnatural Exposure (Kay Scarpetta #8) by Patricia Cornwell

Hardback, Very Good condition

Genre: Mystery

Virginia’s chief medical examiner, Kay Scarpetta, is trapped in a nightmare of unsolved murders and a pernicious virus in this breathless thriller, where clues are elusive and the killer’s threats are hurled through cyberspace. — Dr. Kay Scarpetta is newly returned from Dublin, where she was called in to examine the remains of a murder victim whose limbs and head were expertly severed—a signature of a cunning serial killer on the loose again after an eight-year sabbatical—when the same killer apparently strikes again, this time much closer to home. The remains of a woman found in a Virginia landfill, her body dismembered in the same expert way as in the Dublin case. After Scarpetta investigates the murder scene, the killer boldly contacts her through the Internet, inviting her to download photos of the murder victim and signing off with a chilling screen name: deadoc.

Scarpetta soon discovers inconsistencies between this new case and the serial murders she has been investigating. With the help of her niece Lucy, an FBI computer expert, she takes an extraordinary virtual tour of the background of the e-mailed photo. But even as Scarpetta and Lucy probe illuminating details in virtual reality, local authorities try to wrap up the case by charging the man who discovered the body. When Scarpetta determines that the victim was exposed to a rare smallpox-like virus before she died and, later, that she herself may have been infected, she realizes that she is up against a killer with access to an incredibly sophisticated arsenal of deadly force—a killer with a specific animus directed toward her.
