Dr. David Hunter is running from his past and his occupation in the small English village of Manham. The local General Practitioner, Dr. Henry Maitland, hires David to help him run his clinic after a tragic car accident, which leaves Dr. Maitland without use of his legs. David's new life is uneventful until local boys find the dead body of Sally Palmer.

During a routine background check on the patrons living in Manham, local law enforcement learns that David is a specialist in forensic anthropology. They become extremely persistent in asking him to assist them in figuring out the details of Sally's death; David reluctantly agrees to help them -- just this once. When another female body is found, David must use all of his expertise and face his own past to help find a killer.

This is a fabulous read!!! The forensic detail is so astonishing that I did not miss a word and refused to put it down.
