Unnatural Causes

Meet the forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd. A detective in his own right, he must solve the mystery of sudden and unexplained deaths.  He has performed over 23,000 autopsies, including 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 disaster, "'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.  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.
