Über diesen Titel
'Patricia Cornwell's memoir is a personal page turner, filled with mysteries and tragedies like her fiction, but these characters are real.' JAMIE LEE CURTIS
The No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell finally tells the story that rivals all of the works that precede it: her own.
Patricia Cornwell is best known for her international bestselling thriller series about forensic pathologist Dr Kay Scarpetta. Every story comes from somewhere, and Scarpetta's began when Patricia Cornwell embedded herself in a morgue.
In this achingly honest memoir, Cornwell excavates her own life, detailing her traumatic childhood being raised by neglectful parents, her father abandoning the young family on Christmas day, her mother being institutionalised twice, an abusive foster family, and developing a parental relationship with evangelist Billy Graham's wife Ruth. Cornwell depicts a harrowing hospitalisation and near-death car accident. She unflinchingly shares overcoming obstacles that later gave her the ambition to become an award-winning police reporter. From there it was research in a medical examiner's office that would turn into a full-time job. She would become a forensic expert and worldwide publishing phenomenon.
Cornwell leaves no stone unturned in this deeply candid account of her life, offering inspiring insight into what made her into the international sensation she is today.©2026 Cornwell Entertainment, Inc (P)2026 Hachette Book Group USA
Kritikerstimmen
'Let's start, and end, with this: Patricia Cornwell's autobiography, TRUE CRIME, could be the best book she's ever written. And I've read them all!' (James Patterson)
'Patricia Cornwell's memoir is a personal page turner, filled with mysteries and tragedies like her fiction, but these characters are real.' (Jamie Lee Curtis)
'Sometimes a true crime doesn't look conventional, but in Patricia Cornwell's life, the crime was true enough. Childhood abandonment and neglect forged a resilience and perception of humanity clearly evident across her bestselling novels. A remarkable, enthralling, and riveting story of her life.' (Dan Ackroyd)
'Patricia Cornwell's TRUE CRIME is absolutely riveting and beautifully written, revealing the origin story of someone with unparalleled tenacity - never quitting, even when facing tremendous adversity. Her memoir underscores the sentiment that only enormous pressure creates a diamond - which is exactly what Patricia is.' (Billie Jean King)
