Unnatural Causes
By Richard Shepherd
⭐️⭐️⭐️
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 disaster, '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.
This was an interesting read at the start but somewhere in the middle I got a little bored. May be a moody thing a 2.5/3 star read!
