Morgue

Describes the life and times of the forensic pathologist and coroner Vincent DiMaio using examples of case studies conducted during his career and afterward when he was called as an expert witness. Addresses the findings in several high-profile cases, including the death of Trayvon Martin, the identity of the man in Lee Harvey Oswald's grave (yes; it really was him) and Vincent van Gough (no, it wasn't suicide, just a stupid accident), as well as less famous cases. Easy, entertaining read with an careful, but not stomach-turning description of the methods, the conditions of the bodies, and the contributions of entire teams of researchers with expertise in everything from gunshot residue to dentition.
