Patricia Cornwell Blow Fly Pbk published June 2004 by Warner at £6.99 ISBN: 0751530743


The Twelfth Dr Kay Scarpetta Novel
Dr Kay Scarpetta has left Virginia in quest of peace but instead finds herself drawn into baffling, horrific murders in Florida, where she becomes entangled in an international conspiracy that confronts her with the shock of her life
'All of Cornwell's books run on high octane fuel, a cocktail of adrenalin and fear. . . such is her grip on her audience and such is her ability to suck you into her hermetic, claustrophobic world that Scarpetta's tension becomes the reader's. Her fear is contagious, her adrenalin levels boost your own' The Times
'Scarpetta is a compassionate, moral crusader, a force for good in a sea of evil. Her focus Is on the victims. There is never any attempt at understanding the "squirrels" who kill for their twisted reasons. There is no redemption for them either. And that's how it should be' Daily Mail
Patricia Cornwell's first novel was published in 1990. Since then she and her creation, Kay Scarpetta, have become household names and she has earned widespread critical acclaim. She has helped to establish the Virginia Institute of Forensic Science and Medicine and serves as its Chairman of the Board.
'Forget the pretenders. Cornwell reigns' Mirror

Tim Green The Fifth Angel Pbk published June 2004 by Warner at £6.99 ISBN: 0446613770


From all appearances, Jack Ruskin is a mild-mannered and well-respected lawyer practicing in New York. But he is also living every parent's nightmare: His teenage daughter has recently been the victim of a brutal and horrific attack by a sexual predator. As Jack tends to her, his constant sorrow and pain gradually grows into hot-blooded rage. It turns out that her attacker has a long history of sexual crimes and - as is the case with many repeat sex offenders - was allowed back on the streets to wreak more harm once he did his time in jail. As Ruskin's rage builds, he is convinced that it is finally time to take matters into his own angry hands - but how far will he go to make certain that justice is done?

Gary Weiss Born to Steal: When the Mafia Hit Wall Street Pbk published June 2004 by Warner at £7.99 ISBN: 0446613983

Hood brokers. Monthly million dollar paychecks. Thirty-six-hour cocaine binges. 'Rocky' themed pep rallies. Run-ins with Mafia thugs toting Mac 10 machine pistols. This was the life of Louis Pasciuto, a fast-talking Staten Island kid who, from age 19 to 25, moved stocks for 17 different brokerage houses - most of the time without even a fake licence. This inside account of the Mafia's infiltration of Wall Street details Louis' career as the consummate liar, selling phantom stocks to naive Americans and leading a lifestyle worthy of Caligula. To avoid a long prison sentence, Pasciuto eventually became state witness. Gary Weiss shares the inside story of Wall Street's notorious 'chop houses', best known as the crooked Mob-run brokerages, where rampant thievery netted several billion dollars from gullible investors.
