Frightening, heartbreaking, and exquisitely calibrated, John le Carre's new novel opens with the gruesome murder of the young and beautiful Tessa Quayle near northern Kenya's Lake Turkana, the birthplace of mankind. Her putative African lover and traveling companion, a doctor with one of the aid agencies, has vanished from the scene of the crime. Tessa's much older husband, Justin, a career diplomat at the British High Commission in Nairobi, sets out on a personal odyssey in pursuit of the killers and their motive. A master chronicler of the deceptions and betrayals of ordinary people caught in political conflict, le Carre portrays, in The Constant Gardener, the dark side of unbridled capitalism. His eighteenth novel is also the profoundly moving story of a man whom tragedy elevates. Justin Quayle, amateur gardener and ineffectual bureaucrat, seemingly oblivious to his wife's cause, discovers his own resources and the extraordinary courage of the woman he barely had time to love. The Constant Gardener is a magnificent exploration of the new world order by one of the most compelling and elegant storytellers of our time

When Scarpetta examines a young man's body, she discovers stunning indications that he may have been alive when he was zipped inside a pouch and locked inside the cooler of her new Cambridge Forensic Center in Massachusetts. Various 3-D radiology scans reveal more shocking details about internal injuries unlike any Scarpetta has ever seen. These suggest the possibility of a conspiracy to cause mass casualties, and she races against time to discover who and why before more people die

È la settimana prima di Natale e Kay Scarpetta sta esaminando il cadavere della ventiseienne Toni Darien, ritrovato poco prima dell'alba a Central Park. L'omicidio viene messo in relazione con la recente sparizione della bellissima multimilionaria Hannah Starr. Tutto ciò rischia di innescare una psicosi collettiva, mentre Kay diventa oggetto di atti minatori: dapprima una telefonata, poi un pacco sospetto, forse una bomba, consegnato a casa sua. Qualcuno sta cercando di ucciderla. La sua vicenda personale finisce inevitabilmente con l'intrecciarsi alle indagini condotte dall'investigatore Pete Marino e dal sostituto procuratore Jaime Berger sull'omicidio di Toni Darien e la sparizione di Hannah Starr
