Since Postmortem garnered critical acclaim and a record-breaking five awards for a first crime novel, the Scarpetta novels have often been imitated, but never bettered. Against her own judgement and the advice of Benton Wesley and her niece, Lucy, Scarpetta agrees to return to Virginia as a consultant pathologist on a case involving the death of a fourteen-year-old girl. Accompanied by Pete Marino she finds the once familiar territory of her morgue and her department much changed, and the new Chief Medical Examiner treats her with disdain despite the obvious fact that he is in desperate need of her expertise.But professional as ever, she re-examines the evidence and proves the girl was murdered. She also finds trace evidence which matches that found on an accident victim and at the scene where one of Lucy's operatives was attacked. It is not only a forensic puzzle, but opens up the probability that someone is after those closest to Scarpetta.

Strangely, each of the four doors to the house had been locked from the inside.The Luxtons'' idyllic farm on a stretch of lush countryside between Exmoor and Dartmoor had been lovingly tended with outdated methods. There were rumours of a thwarted betrothal, wrangles over money and property, generational feuds in the extended family, bouts of insanity and extreme miserliness.John Cornwell''s classic investigation into the violent deaths of these unhappy siblings told a story of a farming family struggling under unbearable practical and emotional pressures, their violent deaths, the police investigation and the proceedings of the inquest.

Her clever ruse leads to genuine romantic entanglements, as the invented fiancé takes on a life of its own. The novel explores themes of independence and self-assertion.Jenkins' witty and charming narrative highlights Patricia's struggle to live on her own terms, blending romance and comedy to create an engaging and entertaining read. The story reflects the comedic potential of misunderstandings and the pursuit of true love amidst social expectations.

Audiokniha: Nevěří v Boha ani svého krále, přesto na něm závisí osud křesťanského království…Mladý northumbrijský velmož Uhtred z Bebbanburgu pomohl Sasům zvítězit nad vikinskými nájezdníky v bitvě u Cynuitu, během níž vlastnoručně připravil o život obávaného válečníka Ubbu Lothbroksona. Nyní však západosaské království Wessex čelí novému přílivu krvelačných Dánů, který zažene krále Alfreda a jeho věrné až do nepřístupných bažin, kde jsou nuceni skrývat se před nepřáteli jako nějací psanci.Zbožný panovník usilující o sjednocení Anglie, jemuž historie dala přídomek Veliký, se však nevzdává a pomalu shromažďuje vojsko, s nímž chce pohanské vetřelce vyhnat ze své země. Uhtred hraje v jeho plánech klíčovou roli, jejich vztah ovšem není zrovna ideální – horkokrevný mladý válečník totiž chová více sympatií k divokým Seveřanům než ke svému králi, který spíše než středověkého rytíře připomíná křesťanského světce. Jemu však přísahal věrnost a také by jednou rád získal zpět své panství, k čemuž by mu mohl dopomoci právě Alfred. Tedy pokud nad dánskou přesilou dokáže s Boží pomocí zvítězit…Pokračování dobrodružné ságy z raně středověké Anglie, která se stala předlohou úspěšného seriálu Poslední království.„Meče, štíty, bahno a krev.
