In this gripping narrative, Kay Scarpetta faces a pivotal moment after her tenure as Virginia's Chief Medical Examiner ends abruptly. Fleeing the turmoil of Richmond, where she fears imminent dismissal and media scrutiny over a deputy police chief's murder, she seeks refuge in Florida, embracing her new role as a private forensic consultant. Scarpetta becomes embroiled in a disturbing case in Louisiana involving a woman found dead in a rundown hotel, raising questions about her troubled past filled with blackouts and violence. The investigation takes a chilling turn when Scarpetta receives a request from Jean-Baptiste Chandonne, the notorious Wolfman, who demands to meet her from death row. He claims to possess crucial information that could unravel a global investigation. As Scarpetta, alongside her niece Lucy and Detective Pete Marino, delves deeper, they grapple with the implications of Chandonne's revelations. The trio must navigate a complex conspiracy that tests their trust and loyalty, leading Scarpetta to confront shocking truths that could alter her life forever.
