Description
Book SynopsisA ''one-off'' from the best-selling creator of the Dr Kay Scarpetta series, based on the serialisation in the New York Times.
Moving between the chill of Cambridge, Massachusetts and the sultry humidity of Knoxville, Tennessee, Winston Garano, a police investigator, is instructed to look into a twenty-year-old murder case. Although Win reckons there are many more pressing current cases which should have higher priority, he gets on with the task, unaware of the can of worms he will prise open. With her hallmark qualities of deft characterisation, perfect research and tense story-telling, Patricia Cornwell has created a novel which entertains, intrigues and satisfies.
Trade ReviewThis sparky novella-length work... is read with aplomb by Kate Reading. There are two great characters, crackling with suppressed chemistry * Sunday Times *
Kate Reading's telling of AT RISK keeps the listener hooked from the start * Waterstone’s Books Quarterly *
The pace is cracking. * DAILY MIRROR *
This book is just as exciting as one of the author's Scarpetta thrillers and is thrilling from start to finish. * THE LADY *
