Scarpetta is the new crime thriller series based on the famous series of bestselling novels by Patricia Cornwell featuring the beloved forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta – over 120 million copies sold worldwide since its debut in 1990. The series, starring Nicole Kidman in the role of Dr. Kay Scarpetta and developed and written for television by Liz Sarnoff, is the culmination of decades of waiting and finally brings the iconic literary character, the relentless doctor, to the screen lawyer ready to become the voice of the victims, unmask a serial killer and prove that the case that marked the beginning of his career 28 years earlier will not also prove to be his undoing. Set in the world of modern-day forensic investigations, Scarpetta is a multi-faceted thriller that reflects on the price you pay when pursuing justice at all costs.
