I very much enjoyed this audio book. Although the involvement of necro search seemed to fall short at times, it is a very insistent tale of the importance of all departments working together for a common goal, and about how successful this teamwork can prove to be.

Kevin Pierce as narrator did a great job. He wasn't too excited, but he wasn't boring, either. He had just the right amount of empathy, and the story really came to life through his narration.

The cases described in the book are harrowing, but they aren't described in a sensationalist way, which is a bonus.

If you've watched some of the crimes on discovery channel, you'll be reminded of those when listening to this book -- I certainly was. Until now, I had thought that the TV show Cold Case was just that: a figment of somebody's imagination. Now I learned that there are indeed departments looking into cold cases.
This book was an eye-opener on many levels, and I'm glad I happened upon it.

An excellent book! I loved it. It was so well researched and detailed. It explored how forensic investigators work and some of the cases that were worked on that were difficult. It explained how certain forensic groups started. I have read several Steve Jackson books and this is one of the best. I highly recommend it.
