Summary
The dead can talk - we just need to listen....
Camden mortuary assistant Cassie Raven has pretty much seen it all. But this is the first time she's come face to face with someone she knew on the slab. Someone she cared about.
Geraldine Edwards, the teacher responsible for her returning to education after she got ensnared in a life of drugs. The woman who acted as a second mother to the orphaned Cassie.
Deeply intuitive and convinced that she can pick up the last thoughts of the dead, Cassie senses that there must be more to the ruling of an accidental death. With Mrs E's evasive son demanding the release of his mother's body, Cassie knows that time is running out to find answers. Is her grief making her see things that aren't there? Or is her intuition right, and there's something more sinister to Mrs E's death than the ME thinks? Harbouring an innate distrust of the police, Cassie sets out to investigate the death and deliver justice for the woman who saved her life.
For fans of Elly Griffiths' Ruth Galloway series and Kathy Reichs' Temperance Brennan comes a new heroine for forensic medicine.

beautifully written
this is not my usual type of detective story that I tend to go for (gritty, gory, Scottish and sweary) but I was transfixed by bothe narration and the style of writing... looking forward to listening to the next one.

Clever compelling and brilliantly read
I found this a great listen. Compelling story and nicely rounded characters. The narration really worked well, and I will definitely seek out both author and narrator again.

Loved it!
Wasn’t sure at first, it took a while to process all the details of Cassandra’s character and foibles but somehow she gets under your skin.
Beautifully written and well narrated.

A book that grows on you
Listening on audible I thought the « voice » was too young for me but I persisted and really got into Cassie . Flyte was slightly unbelievable but this is the first novel of many I hope and their relationship will grow . A.k Turner looking forward to the next one

Fantastic book, could not stop listening
The main character/heroine of the book is a mortuary worker who can communicate with the dead. She is a lovable goth girl with a complex background - what more do you want?? Its also a murder mystery with wonderful plot and characterisation Loved the narrator too. Please keep writing, A.K. Turner, you're a star.

Interesting lead character
Mortuary/pathology mystery from a new angle. The plot develops nicely and keeps you guessing. Excellent performance from the narrator.
