An absolutely brilliant book. I really recommend it, I dont often say that but its fascinating Jeremy Vine, BBC Radio 2 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 __________ Meet the forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd. He solves the mysteries of unexplained or sudden death. Hes a detective in his own right. And he has one, ultimate and pressing question to answer: How did this person die? Unnatural Causes is an unputdownable record of an extraordinary life, a unique insight into a remarkable profession, and above all a powerful and reassuring testament to lives cut short. __________ Dr Shepherd has faced serial killers, natural disaster, perfect murders and freak accidents, all in the pursuit of the truth. And while hes been involved in some of the most high-profile cases of recent times, its often the less well-known encounters that prove the most perplexing, intriguing and even bizarre. In or out of the public eye, his evidence has put killers behind bars, freed the innocent and turned open-and-shut cases on their heads. But a life in death, bearing witness to some of humanitys darkest corners, exacts a price and Shepherd doesnt flinch from counting the cost to him and his family. The dead do not hide the truth and they never lie. Through me the dead can speak . . .
