Pathologist Karys Harper particularly dislikes examining murder victims. Unfortunately for her, in this particular case, that's exactly what she's doing. What puzzles her is the nature of the body's injuries. Although the man died from strangulation, there's a surgical incision in his groin, an incision that was made after he was dead, and then sewn up.
As she investigates, Karys senses the killer's macabre delight in completing the task, and that the body was intended to be found and identified quickly. Still more chilling, amongst the deliberate clues left behind by the murderer is the possibility that this is merely the first victim.
Peter Lovesey
“A crime writer with a sure touch and the capacity to shock.”

Whole Story Audio Books has developed a unique system to guide you on the level of explicit content in our audio books. The system is applied against our titles to consistently rate levels of explicit language, sex and violence.
We consider not only frequency of content type but also the context: for example, strong language in a humorous setting is different from aggressive use of strong language.
Whilst there will always be subjectivity and different individuals views on this matter, we hope that you will find our content guide useful if these criteria form part of your selection process when choosing your next audio book.
