Review # 1 was written on 2017-02-15 00:00:00 Matthew Harrington You think you know the details of some of the most high profile deaths in the country but honestly, you don't until you read this book. This book goes in serious depth about various notorious deaths in America in recent history through the eyes of one of the top forensic experts in the nation. The writer experienced these cases first hand because he was asked for his professional opinion or insight in many different instances. It was actually a complete accident that I read this book; for some reason I thought it was about sudden deaths and the mysteries behind them, but after I started reading, I couldn't put it down. It was also interesting because I plan on pursuing a career as a forensic examiner as well. This book is a good pick if you want to take a look at the highlighted cases from a different point of view, even if the author does seem like he has a superiority complex at times. Anyone who is willing to be open-minded and look at these mysteries from a new angle will appreciate this original and thought provoking book!

Review # 2 was written on 2013-06-11 00:00:00 Cary Anderson An episodic book, without any theme or narrative, about some notable cases but interesting. I think it's always worthwhile to get a glimpse inside the mind of a forensic expert. I would have liked to see a bit more personal disclosure about Wecht's early life, education and upbringing. How does a person decide that he'd like to cut up bodies and study corpses for a living one day?
