In Blow Fly, Kay Scarpetta stands at the threshold of a new life after her work as Virginia's Chief Examiner has come to a jarring end. At the close of The Last Precinct, she knew she would have to leave Richmond if she were to find any peace. She feared she was about to be fired by the governor. More alarming, she was hounded in the media and in the courtroom, for what some claimed was her involvement in the murder of a deputy police chief. So Scarpetta packed up her belongings and set out for the warmth and solace of the Florida sun.
Her friends and family by her side, Scarpetta must unravel a twisting conspiracy with an international reach and confront the shock of her life--a blow that will force her to question theloyalty and trust of all she holds dear.
With herknowledge of state of the art forensics and investigative technique that have meade her America's most alluring crime writer, Patricia Cornwell once again brings life to a world both frightening and irresistibly compelling.
