About this listen
When convicted killer Ronnie Joe Waddell is executed in Virginia’s electric chair, he becomes what should be a routine postmortem case for Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta. But after Waddell’s execution the murders continue, as everyone connected to him begins to die – including members of Scarpetta’s staff.
Then, when crucial records disappear from her files, Scarpetta comes under fire for incompetence. Caught in a web of political intrigue and betrayed by those she trusted, Scarpetta must fight to free herself from murderous insinuations and threats to her own life.
To save her career, Scarpetta soon finds herself retracing Waddell’s bloody footprints, following a trail that might lead to long-hidden secrets deep within the state government. Either the truth will set her free…or unleash upon her a punishment both cruel and unusual.

Cruel and Unusual
The unusual plot, Lucy's perspective as adolescent. Pete's ongoing protective shroud over Kate who he's in love with her ♥️

Always good listening to Patricia Cornwell
Patricia Cornwell’s book are always good.
Not all the voices are great though. Lucy is a bit weird so is Marino.
But the stories are always great. And I like the character of Kay Scarpetta. I read already a few of the books with her as a protagonist
