Summary

Sentenced to prison for the rest of her natural life, Clymene O'Riley is a beautiful, clever, cold blooded killer that forensic anthropologist Diane Fallon knows cannot be trusted. Diane supplied the forensic evidence that put Clymene in prison for one murder, with implications that she may have left a veritable graveyard of dead men in her wake. So what is Diane to do when Clymene reaches out from prison to her with a plea for help, and FBI profiler Ross Kingsley urges Diane on?

The answer leaves Diane the prime suspect in a bloody murder and puts her in the path of an angry killer who wants her dead. Not even her haven at the RiverTrail Museum of Natural History is safe as a scandal over possession of stolen Egyptian artifacts threatens to turn Diane out in the street.
