"Killing me won't kill the beast" are the last words of rapist-murderer Ronnie Joe Waddell, written four days before his execution. But they can't explain how Dr. Kay Scarpetta finds Waddell's fingerprints on "another" crime scene -- "after" she'd performed his autopsy.

And if the next victim is someone she knows, the punishment will be cruel and unusual...Cornwell, Patricia is the author of 'Cruel and Unusual', published 2007 under ISBN 9780786296873 and ISBN 0786296879.
