Book Review of Skeletons in the Closet: Stories from the County Morgue

Skeletons in the Closet: Stories from the County Morgue
StephanieW avatar reviewed on + 34 more book reviews


Excellent non fiction exploration into the world of murder, mystery, and a morgue. A fast read with compelling stories and great insider knowledge. Though this book will please those obsessed with true crime novels and shows (CSI, etc.), it also offers a glimpse into the real world applications of biology, physiology, and forensics. Highly recommended.

** This book contains graphic photographs of injuries and wounds sustained by deceased victims. If you are squeamish in any way (especially when viewing photos depicting wounds made by gunshots, hammers, etc.) then you will want to avoid this book or skip the large section of images.
