This collection brings together Patricia Cornwell's first three thrillers. In "Fatal Weekend," a serial killer is on the loose in Richmond, Virginia. Kay Scarpetta, along with her niece Lucy, attempts to track down the murderer, but someone is sabotaging the investigation to ruin Scarpetta's reputation. In "Corpus Delicti," Beryl Madison is being stalked, receiving threatening phone calls. Yet, for inexplicable reasons, she lets her killer into her home one night. In "All That Remains," the car of a young couple is found abandoned in a remote location, and months later, their bodies are discovered. The mystery deepens with the appearance of a strange playing card found with each corpse. This omnibus showcases Cornwell's signature blend of suspense and forensic detail, as Scarpetta navigates complex cases while confronting personal and professional challenges.

Ein Killer verbreitet Angst und Schrecken in Florida. Er hat schon zehn Menschen umgebracht und die Mordserie reißt nicht ab. Der Täter, ein von Wahnvorstellungen besessener, missgestalteter Mann, identifiziert sich mit einem geheimnisvollen Motiv der Kunstgeschichte - mit William Blakes mystischem rotem Drachen. Wer wäre besser geeignet, ein Psychogramm des Gesuchten anzufertigen, als der Psychiater und Massenmörder, den das FBI drei Jahre zuvor fassen konnte: Dr. Hannibal Lecter.
