The Last Precinct

By: Patricia Cornwell

Narrated by: Kate Reading

The eleventh Scarpetta novel, in which the Chief Medical Examiner is under a Grand Jury investigation for murder. She knows she’s being framed and she no longer knows who she can trust…

Physically and psychologically bruised by her encounter with the killer Chandonne, Dr Kay Scarpetta has to leave her home in the hands of the police team investigating the attack. She finds shelter with an old friend, Anna Zenner, but it is not the haven of security she needs when she discovers that Anna has been subpoenaed to appear before a Grand Jury which is investigating Scarpetta for murder. Kay knows she is being framed and she also knows she can trust no-one.

Meanwhile it appears that Chandonne killed a woman in New York before his murderous spree in Virginia, but when Scarpetta looks more closely into that case with the NY prosecutor Jaime Berger, proof of his guilt is far from certain–in fact she begins to believe that he may not be the perpetrator of any of the crimes he is accused of. As she follows the forensic trail to the real killer she gradually realizes that someone has been spinning a web for years with the aim of entrapping her. Who is it, and why are they so desperate to be rid of her?

Absolutely Fantastic! This is a MUST Audio.

If you are a series FAN..you will be CAPTIVATED .So Well done!! Do Not Miss.

Engaging, entertaining read.

For those who love biologic science, complex story lines, and baffling cases.

This is packed with realistic characters who show a wide range of personality and weakness, some we care a lot about and others we love to despise. Criminal cases are puzzles worthy of Sir Doyle.

Not for the faint of heart. Excellent narration for the myriad of characters!

Very good!

I love the Scarpetta series - this is another great one.

Can’t wait to start Blowfly

Kay Scarpetta does it again

I felt the story started a bit slow, with Kay reminiscing of her dead lover & her dragging conversations with her psychiatrist friend. But once the story picked up, focusing on the latest murders, it go really good. I couldn’t stop listening! Love the Scarpetta series & all my favorite supporting characters.

The Suspense!!!

This one really had me in a chokehold! By far my favorite Scarpetta book! Don’t skip this one!
