Patricia D. Cornwell’s first novel, Postmortem, is the only novel to have won the Edgar, John Creasey, Anthony and MacAvity awards, and the Prix du Roman d’Aventure in one year. Her second and third novels, Body of Evidence and All That Remains, attracted equal critical acclaim and became international bestsellers, establishing the author as one of the top crime writers. A former award-winning crime reporter for the Charlotte Observer, Patricia D. Cornwell worked for over six years as a computer analyst in the chief medical examiner’s office in Virginia. She is also the author of A Time for Remembering, a biography of Ruth Bell Graham, the wife of the evangelist. She divides her time between Richmond and Malibu.<\/p>\n

I dream of roasting peanuts in a tin and when the tomatoes are in eating them like apples. I imagine driving the pickup truck, sweat shining on my face in that no-future place I swore I’d leave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
