Dissection Murders
Naked, paralysed and fully conscious. The Dissection Begins. Middle-aged women are being dissected whilst alive and conscious, their bodies subjected to humiliating abuse.
Detective Sergeant Grant Maddox sets out to find who and why anyone would visit so vicious a crime upon such seemingly harmless and inoffensive victims. His investigation, helped by a young colleague, DC Amber Bennett, new to the CID, takes the officers to the dark recesses of the human mind and imagination. The ghosts from Maddox's past come back to haunt him as the full horror of a distant crime stretches across the years to burst violently into the present.
How can a plummeting jet crashing into a French field, an exclusive school for the sons of the rich and famous, and the hollowed-out cavities of dissected victims all be linked? The journey to find the answers is fast-paced, littered with twists and turns, horror and humour, and a shocking, unpredictable climax.
The Dissection Murders...you thought you were beyond being shocked...you thought wrong.

Such a good book. Admittedly it took me way longer to read than I would have liked. Being a British written novel the style and words are different, but it was so well written and with such great humor. Grant is a fantastic character along with his colleagues. You can relate to each character even the suspect. There is great detail but perfectly done. There is great sadness when it comes down to motive and such a horrific topic that is also deep into reality.
