Sinossi
Richmond, Virginia: viene rinvenuto il cadavere di un uomo in avanzato stato di decomposizione. L'autopsia non riesce a stabilire la causa della morte e la polizia non è in grado di identificarlo. Ma strani peli e segni di terrificanti rituali ritrovati sul corpo della vittima fanno pensare alla mano criminale di una creatura di cui non si vorrebbe neanche supporre l'esistenza.

Patricia Cornwell’s forensic mystery cases are my rare exception of reading thrillers but oh, the previous was violent and bleak. I dislike her serial killer arcs, taking three novels to be rid of them. Having dispensed with that arc and unexpectedly losing a good character, “ Black Notice ”, 1999 is Leggi tutto
