"Killing me won't kill the beast" warned convicted rapist-murderer Ronnie Joe Waddell four days before his execution. Ignored as a madman's rant, the words come to haunt Scarpetta when Waddell's fingerprints show up at a fresh crime-- committed after she'd performed his autopsy. It's a chilling game, and Scarpetta can't afford to lose. Because if Waddell's next victim is someone she loves, the punishment will be CRUEL AND UNUSUAL.
