When the dead finally speak, someone has to listen.
Dr. Evelyn Cross never expected a single skeleton to change her life. But when human remains surface at a Manchester construction site, what begins as routine forensic analysis becomes something far more sinister: seventeen bodies buried in unmarked graves, victims of a methodical killer who believed the vulnerable were disposable.
Following the evidence across continents, Evelyn uncovers a serial predator who has operated undetected for thirty years, leaving over one hundred victims scattered from the UK to Australia and Canada to Southeast Asia. Each grave tells a story of lives cut short, families left without answers, and a killer who exploited every gap in international law enforcement.
But solving cold cases exacts a terrible price. As Evelyn pursues justice for the forgotten dead, she must confront not only humanity's darkest impulses but also her own breaking point. Can one forensic pathologist's dedication to giving voice to the voiceless transform how the world approaches unsolved murders?
From rain-soaked Manchester streets to the Australian outback, from the Nevada desert to the frozen Canadian north, Murder Cases is a gripping journey through modern forensic investigation. It's a story about the science of solving impossible crimes, the psychology of those who commit them, and the relentless pursuit of truth for victims society tried to forget.
Some graves refuse to stay silent. Some investigators refuse to give up.
"A masterful blend of forensic detail and profound humanity. Dr. Evelyn Cross joins the ranks of unforgettable investigators who prove that the dead, given the right advocate, can still demand justice."
"More than a thriller, it's a testament to every real forensic pathologist who refuses to let victims remain nameless, every detective who won't abandon cold cases, and every family who never stops searching."
