‘One might expect [this book] to be a grim read but it absolutely isn’t. I found it invigorating!’ Andrew Marr
‘A beautifully written memoir’ Sunday Times.
‘All That Remains provides a fascinating look at death – its causes, our attitudes toward it, the forensic scientist’s way of analyzing it. A unique and thoroughly engaging book’ Kathy Reichs
Sue Black confronts death every day. As Professor of Anatomy and Forensic Anthropology, she focuses on mortal remains in her lab, at burial sites, at scenes of violence, murder and criminal dismemberment, and when investigating mass fatalities due to war, accident or natural disaster. In All that Remains she reveals the many faces of death she has come to know, using key cases to explore how forensic science has developed, and what her work has taught her.
Do we expect a book about death to be sad? Macabre? Sue’s book is neither. There is tragedy, but there is also humour in stories as gripping as the best crime novel. Our own death will remain a great unknown. But as an expert witness from the final frontier, Sue Black is the wisest, most reassuring, most compelling of guides.
