Without Consent

Sydney forensic expert Dr. Anya Crichton returns in "a captivating thrill ride with a great kicker" from the bestselling author of Malicious Intent (Publishers Weekly). Forensic pathologist and physician, Dr. Anya Crichton does not just examine the dead. She also treats survivors of sexual assault, and the women she now sees compel her to follow the trail of a violent serial rapist—who is becoming more brutal with each attack. When two new victims are stabbed to death, suspicion immediately falls on Geoffrey Willard, recently released from twenty years in prison for the vicious rape and murder of a teenage girl. As the community demands justice, Anya faces the greatest ethical dilemma of her career. If Willard is innocent, her forensic evidence will destroy a respected pathologist's reputation. If Anya is wrong, she has ensured not only that a seasoned killer goes free, but that he remains unstoppable. Only the killer knows a mistake has been made. One that is about to prove fatal . . . Praise for Malicious Intent "Kathryn Fox has created a forensic physician whom readers of Patricia Cornwell will adore." —James Patterson "Will keep you gripped from start to finish . . . What a compelling new talent!" —Jeffrey Deaver
