About this listen

The 'if' of death is certain. The 'when' is unknown. It is the 'why' that really gets people's interest ...


From a rare and deadly amniotic avalanche to a victim of roasted peanuts ... The bestselling author of The Cause of Death and The Quick and the Dead returns with more stranger-than-fiction stories of death, disease and murder - as well as new perspectives on high-profile cases, including the disappearance of Ben Smart and Olivia Hope, the trial of Mark Lundy, and the ill-fated journey of Ansett Flight 703.

Fascinating insight into the pathologist’s role in determining the cause of death and explaining how critical it is for hypotheses to be able to replicated in order to be proof of undeniable scientific fact. The last chapter explaining the ‘21 grams’ theory which was previously unknown to me was absolutely fascinating. More of the same please!

Truly Gripping and Insightful

Really enjoyed this book. The author sets out stories which he reads well while keeping you entertained. Stories from all the aspects of his life as a pathologist….so there is some gore but I highly recommend it.

Interesting and straight forward.

It was quite educational. I learned some facts that were unknown to me. Not that I can remember them now but hope they’ll come to mind in the next pub quiz.

Funny in parts

I feel bad to say that I didn't enjoy this as much as the other books but it was largely due to the narrator changing. The content was varied and the book did make this clear from the outset that it wasn't in the same theme as previous books. Some interesting topics which held my interest, some references to the cases mentioned in the previous books but not overlapping so much as to be repetitive. Overall another good book but I just preferred the previous narrator, sorry! CT-C has certainly lived and had an interesting life!

enjoyable but not as good as previous books

Good story, well read, jumps around somewhat which can become confusing but this is ultimately a list of interesting stories so it’s not difficult to tune in ad hoc. The author reading their story sounds consistently hungry throughout, audible belly rumbles which I enjoyed.

Fun for a morbid mind
