Synopsis: &“Identity Unknown is hauntingly original, impossibly clever and devilishly daring.&” – Chris WhitakerAutopsies can reveal the secrets of the dead. And this victim is sending Scarpetta a message... Summoned to an abandoned theme park to retrieve a body, Dr. Kay Scarpetta is devastated to learn that the victim is a man she once had an intense love affair with. The murder scene is bizarre, with a crop circle of petals around the body, and Giordano&’s skin is strangely red. Scarpetta&’s niece Lucy believes he was dropped from an unidentified flying craft. Scarpetta knows an autopsy can reveal the dead&’s secrets, but she is shocked to find her friend seems to have deliberately left her a clue. As the investigators are torn between suspicions of otherworldly forces, and of Giordano himself, Scarpetta detects an explanation closer to home that, in her mind, is far more evil...
