The River's Witness

The storm was supposed to pass. Instead, it stayed. What begins as a quiet night along the Ohio River turns into something far more dangerous when relentless rain begins to swallow the valley surrounding Huntington, West Virginia. As floodwaters surge beyond their banks and emergency sirens echo through the hills, three college students find themselves stranded with nowhere left to go. Their only refuge is Camden Park-an aging amusement park standing just high enough above the river to escape the rising current. But the storm refuses to let go. The park is dark. The power begins to fail. And the water keeps rising. Trapped inside the empty grounds, the three survivors move deeper into the park searching for shelter as the flood slowly cuts off every possible escape. Rides stand silent in the storm. Midways disappear beneath rushing water. And above it all, the towering skeleton of the Big Dipper roller coaster rises into the night like something ancient watching the valley drown. At first, the storm feels like the only threat. But as the hours pass and the flood closes in, strange things begin to happen inside the abandoned park. Unexplained sounds echo through the wooden rides. Shapes seem to move through the rain. And sometimes, in the brief flashes of lightning, something can be seen high above the park where nothing should be standing at all. Something that does not hunt. Something that does not interfere. Something that simply watches. As the river continues to rise and the night stretches on, the survivors must fight to stay alive in a place where the storm is only part of the danger. Because when the world begins to break apart beneath the weight of water and darkness, some ancient witnesses always return. And the river is still rising.

Autopsy [Tv Tie-In]

New York Times Bestseller The inspiration for the Amazon Prime Video series Scarpetta—starring Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis! In this relaunch of the electrifying, landmark #1 bestselling thriller series, chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta hunts those responsible for two wildly divergent and chilling murders. “Autopsy revitalizes this venerable series and its beloved cast of characters... Whether you’re revisiting the indomitable Scarpetta or meeting her for the very first time, this is an ideal (re)entry point.” - Criminal Element Forensic pathologist Dr. Kay Scarpetta has come almost full circle, returning to Virginia, the state where she launched her storied career, as the chief medical examiner. Finding herself the new girl in town once again after being away for many years, she’s inherited both an overbearing secretary and a legacy of neglect and potential corruption. She and her husband, Benton Wesley, now a forensic psychologist with the U.S. Secret Service, have relocated to Old Town Alexandria, where she’s headquartered five miles from the Pentagon in a post-pandemic world that’s been torn apart by civil and political unrest. After just weeks on the job, she’s called to a scene by railroad tracks—a woman’s body has been shockingly displayed, her throat cut down to the spine—and as Scarpetta begins to follow the trail, it leads unnervingly close to her own historic neighborhood. At the same time, a catastrophe occurs in a top secret labo­ratory in outer space, endangering at least two scientists aboard. Appointed to the highly classified Doomsday Commission that specializes in sensitive national security cases, Scarpetta is summoned to the White House and tasked with finding out exactly what happened. But even as she remotely works the first potential crime scene in space, an apparent serial killer strikes again very close to home. Autopsy captivates readers with the shocking twists, high-wire tension, and forensic detail that Patricia Cornwell is famous for, proving once again why she’s the world’s #1 bestselling crime writer.
