One of the most fascinating books I have read in a long time. Engrossing, a haunting page-turner. A book I could not put down.
The Times, BOOKS OF THE YEAR
Meet the forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd.
He solves the mysteries of unexplained or sudden death.
He has performed over 23,000 autopsies, including some of the most high-profile cases of recent times; the Hungerford Massacre, the Princess Diana inquiry, and 9/11.
He has faced serial killers, natural disasters, perfect murders, and freak accidents.
His evidence has put killers behind bars, freed the innocent, and turned open-and-shut cases on their heads.
Yet all this has come at a huge personal cost.
Unnatural Causes tells the story of not only the cases and bodies that have haunted him the most, but also how to live a life steeped in death.
Thoughtful, revealing, chilling, and always unputdownable, if you liked All That Remains, War Doctor, and This is Going to Hurt, you'll love this.
And catch Dr Richard Shepherd's new book, THE SEVEN AGES OF DEATH, out now.
Gripping, grimly fascinating, and I suspect I'll read it at least twice.
