Young lovers are ending up dead, found partially skeletonized in remote woodland areas with no apparent cause of death. Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta is baffled, and she fears the "Couple Killer" will strike again. The most recent victim was the daughter of a powerful political drug activist, and the search for the killer intensifies.

The review of this Book prepared by LaPierre
Dr. Kay Scarpetta already has eight dead bodies with no apparent cause of death. In the beginning of the book, there are two more added to that total. The bodies of couples are found several months after they have been murdered; their remains are partially skeletonized. At the scenes where the bodies are recovered, the crime scene cops find a jack of hearts.
