This follow-up..has significantly improved on its predecessors and stands head and shoulders above its competitors... ...This is an excellent book useable by all hospital pathologists, forensic pathologists and professions allied to forensic science and it should be seen on the shelves of ecery forensic pathologist's library. -- Science and Justice 2004 Hodder Arnold have yet again added a triumphant forensic text to their stable and are to be congratulated! -- www.forensicmed.co.uk 20040416

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
