Since it had nothing to do with either of the major storylines, it was a total waste time. Then there's a plot involving Marino and the dead girl's mother. Can you say "inappropriate"?? There's the tension between Lucy and her partner, Rudy, which is never really explained.
And there's even tension between Kay and Lucy that's never really explained. Basically, there are far too many things that are touched upon, but never followed up. Why does her mother weep in the night? Why does her father refuse to admit something is dreadfully wrong? Then, in one startling moment, everything Grace assumed she knew is shattered.
Her mother's disappearance leaves Grace reeling and unable to keep her betrothal promise to her long-time beau.
Left to pick up the pieces of her life, Grace questions all she has been taught about love, family, and commitment. Heather Nelson is an English grad student, stunned by a doctor's diagnosis. Surely fate would not allow her father to lose his only daughter after the death of his wife a few years before.
In denial and telling no one she is terminally ill, Heather travels to Lancaster County--the last place she and her mother had visited together. Will Heather find healing for body and spirit? As the lives of four wounded souls begin to weave together like an Amish patchwork quilt, they each discover missing pieces of their life puzzles--and glimpse the merciful and loving hand of God. Kay Scarpetta. After months of menacing phone calls and a feeling that her every move is being watched, a terrifying message scratched into reclusive writer Beryl Madison's car forces her to flee.
But the very night she returns home to Richmond, she deactivates her burglar alarm and opens the door -- to her murderer. Her latest book, Red Mist, is the 19th thriller to feature forensic pathologist Dr Kay Scarpetta, who made her debut 21 years ago in Postmortem, which was an instant bestseller.

These include state-of-the-art DNA testing on various materials, computer enhancement of watermarks and expert examinations of hand-writing, paper, inks and other relics. She also uses her knowledge of profiling on the possible suspects, as well as consulting experts in the field. On presenting her conclusions to a very senior Metropolitan Police officer she learns that had the investigators of the time been presented with the facts she has unearthed, her suspect would definitely have been arrested and would probably have faced trial.
Naming the killer as the artist, Walter Sickert, Cornwell details the reasons and evidence for this conclusion. A young man drops dead, apparently from a cardiac arrhythmia, eerily close to Scarpetta's new Cambridge home. But when his body is examined the next morning, there are stunning indications that he may have been alive when he was zipped inside a pouch and locked insider the Center's cooler. Various 3-D radiology scans reveal more shocking details about internal injuries unlike any Scarpetta has ever seen.

She finds shelter with an old friend, Anna Zenner, but it is not the haven of security she needs when she discovers that Anna has been sub-poenaed to appear before a Grand Jury which is investigating Scarpetta for murder.
Kay knows she is being framed and she also knows she can trust no-one. Meanwhile it appears that Chandonne killed a woman in New York before his murderous spree in Virginia, but when Scarpetta looks more closely into that case with the NY prosectuor Jaime Berger, proof of his guilt is far from certain - in fact she begins to believe that he may not be the perpetrator of any of the crimes he is accused of.

Marino thought he should accompany us, but I would not hear of it. He stared down at worn-out running shoes that had never been given a chance to perform their primary function in this world. His face was deeply flushed, and when he looked up at me, his eyes were bloodshot and filled with pain. They gave the usual song and dance, that sure, everybody says the same thing. Got to talk to the man direct.
