Hi, I've been looking for a series about a female forensic expert (or medical doctor but I'm almost 100% positive it was a forensic expert) who during the course of the series stops to work for the government and starts working as an independent consultant, even starts her own company in a multi floor building and investigates crimes. At one point her daughter who is a computer expert joins the company, as well as the (second?) husband. Also, I think the daughter turns out to be either bisexual or lesbian but that's just a background part of a character, definitely not the focus of the books or even important for the storylines. And last but not least I seem to remember the daughter used to work for an organization like the FBI, CIA, army, something like that, but that's where my memory definitely starts to fail me.

I started reading the Temperance Brennan books by Kathy Reichs (and quite enjoyed them ) but those are definitely not the ones I'm searching for.

Keeping my fingers crossed this is enough for someone to come up with an author, title or anything

Maybe the Kay Scarpetta series by Patricia Cornwell?

Yes it does sound like the Kay scarpetta series. She's a medical examiner who has worked with the FBI. There's a niece who's bi/lesbian.

Thank so much, both of you!
I'm going to check it out right now

I just finished the first book and immediately continued with the next.
Kay Scarpetta was indeed the series I was looking for, thanks so much!
