Publisher's Synopsis
Fred Cheyney and Deborah Harvey left Richmond, Virginia, for the North Carolina Coast but never arrived. Now, Dr. Kay Scarpetta suspects that the couple are already dead, the latest victims in a string of mysterious killings that have occurred over the past two years.
A highly skilled forensic pathologist, Scarpetta is frustrated by her inability to determine the cause of death. The pressure intensifies as Deborah's mother, national "drug czar" Pat Harvey, focuses her immense political power and resources on Scarpetta, the police, and the investigating federal agents.
Packed with the kind of authentic detail that has made Patricia D. Cornwell one of the hottest names in crime writing, ALL THAT REMAINS is mesmerizing storytelling from an extraordinarily gifted, bestselling author.
