What this book is about
The eighth Kay Scarpetta novel finds the forensic pathologist investigating a dismembered body that may be connected to a bioterrorist threat involving smallpox. Cornwell's series is known for its detailed forensic procedure, and Unnatural Exposure is among the most technically specific of its installments — with the bioterror angle making it one of the more prescient entries.
