Publisher Description
Meet the forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd, in the true crime book of the year - brought to you by Penguin.
'The dead do not hide the truth and they never lie. Through me the dead can speak . . .'
He solves the mysteries of unexplained or sudden death.
He has performed over 23,000 autopsies, including investigating some of the most high-profile cases of recent times; the Hungerford Massacre, the Princess Diana inquiry, and 9/11.
He has faced serial killers, natural disasters, 'perfect murders' and freak accidents.
His evidence has put killers behind bars, freed the innocent, and turned open-and-shut cases on their heads.
Yet all this has come at a huge personal cost.
Written and narrated by Dr Richard Shepherd, Unnatural Causes tells the story of not only the cases and bodies that have haunted him the most, but also how to live a life steeped in death.

Customer Reviews
Fascinating
Fascinating look at the highly skilled work of a pathologist. Thank you for your honestly and professionalism .
Super interesting
Really enjoyed listening to this balanced account of Dr Shepherds life and work. Narration style is perfect for the subject which doesn’t need a cheerful voice.
Brilliant
So interesting to get a peek into the role of such a specialised and highly regarded Doctor. The whole book was brilliant listening and was written in a way that really makes you connect to the Author and the passion he pours into his work for the good of others.
