Now published in ten countries across Europe and Asia, the Cassie Raven series was introduced via the BBC Radio 4 crime shorts, Cut & Paste and Open & Shut.
An anatomical pathology technician at a mortuary in edgy Camden Town, Goth girl Cassie solves mortuary mysteries through her special bond with the bodies in her care. She treats them like people, not corpses, and believes that sometimes they respond - to 'tell her' how they died...
After leaving home at 17 to live in a Camden squat Cassie later studied science A-levels at evening classes. In Body Language, the teacher who mentored her turns up dead supposedly from natural causes.
But Cassie isn't so sure...
