A preliminary examination reveals that the body is covered in a fine dust that under ultra-violet light fluoresces blood-red, emerald-green, and sapphire-blue, and physical evidence links this to another series of disturbing homicides in Washington, DC.\n\nAs she pieces together the fragments of evidence, Scarpetta discovers that the cases connect, yet also seem to conflict, drawing herself and her team deeper into the dark world of designer drugs, drone technology, organised crime, and shocking corruption at the highest level.\n\n\u003cb\u003eThe next book in the Scarpetta series is \u003ci\u003eFlesh and Blood\u003c\/i\u003e.
