«Polvo» is the crime novel by Patricia Cornwell, published by B in hardback (464 pages, in Spanish).
Dr. Kay Scarpetta, director of the Cambridge Forensic Centre, returns home after attending one of the worst mass murders in the United States when agent Pete Marino wakes her to report a corpse found on the MIT campus. The victim appears to be computer engineer Gail Shipton, last seen in a bar and about to face a lucrative lawsuit against her former financial managers. Scarpetta also fears the case may implicate her niece Lucy, a computer expert. The body, covered in a fine dust that glows under ultraviolet light, points to a serial killer and leads the investigation into the world of designer drugs, organised crime and corruption at the highest levels.
«Polvo» is novel 21 in the Dr. Kay Scarpetta series, published on 27 January 2016 by Ediciones B, translated by Carlos Abreu Fetter.
