This week Patricia Cornwell published the 16th mystery in her bestselling series featuring forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta. In the simply titled Scarpetta, Kay accepts an assignment in New York City, leaving behind her private forensic pathology practice in Charleston, South Carolina. The NYPD has asked her to examine an injured man on Bellevue Hospital’s psychiatric prison ward. The handcuffed and chained patient, Oscar Bane, has specifically asked for her, and when she literally has her gloved hands on him, he begins to talk—and the story he has to tell turns out to be one of the most bizarre she has ever heard.
Barnes & Noble has graciously allowed us to post an interview with author Patricia Cornwell on our site. Conducted by host Molly Pesce, Cornwell discusses her personalized research method, and how she strives to bring each reader into every scene involving gunshots, autopsies, and trips into the forensics lab.
