How to solve a murder

true stories from a life in forensic medicine

Fractured skulls. Gas masks. Brain buckets. Vats of acid. Pickled body parts. Not the usual tools of trade, but for Chief Forensic Medical Scientist Derek and Forensic Secretary Pauline they were just part of a normal day in the office inside the world-famous Department of Forensic Medicine at Guy's Hospital in London. Derek has played a pivotal role in investigating some of the UK's most high-profile mass disasters and murder cases. Derek's . . . work on murder cases, in particular, has seen him credited as a pioneer of forensic medical science, after developing . . . techniques that make it easier to secure a conviction and also identify a serial killer. . . . These . . . revelations will open your eyes to the dark world inhabited by those who investigate death and murder (typically most horrid), and unveil the secrets of how each case is solved.
