Description

La semana antes de Navidad, el desastre economico hace que la doctora Kay Scarpetta -pese a su apretada agenda y su trabajo como analista forense para la CNN- ofrezca sus servicios gratuitos a la Oficina del Jefe de Medicina Forense de Nueva York. Su mayor presencia publica parece precipitar una serie de acontecimientos turbadores e inesperados. En television, se le pregunta en directo por la sonada desaparicion de Hannah Starr, a la que se da por muerta. Poco despues, en el mismo programa, recibe la sorprendente llamada de una antigua paciente psiquiatrica de su marido, Benton Wesley. Cuando despues del programa regresa a casa, encuentra un siniestro paquete, posiblemente una bomba, en la conserjeria. Pronto las aparentes amenazas a la vida de Scarpetta se entrelazan en una trama surrealista que incluye a un actor famoso acusado de un delito sexual inimaginable y la desaparicion de la hermosa millonaria con quien Lucy, sobrina de Scarpetta, quiza haya compartido un pasado secreto. / It is the week before Christmas. But in no time at all, her increased visibility seems to precipitate a string of dramatic and unsettling events. She is asked live on the air about the sensational case of Hannah Starr, who has vanished and is presumed dead. Moments later during the same broadcast, she receives a startling call-in from a former psychiatric patient of her husband, Benton Wesley. When she returns after the show to the apartment where she and Benton live, she finds a suspicious package, waiting for her at the front desk. Soon the apparent threat on Scarpetta's life finds her embroiled in a deadly plot that includes a famous actor accused of an unthinkable sex crime and the disappearance of a beautiful millionaire with whom Lucy seems to have shared a secret past.
