In the beginning there were five identical murders - bodies eviscerated and organs scattered playfully around. Beverly Wharton pinned the crime on Melkior Pendred, a highly skilled and autistic mortuary assistant. Her colleague, Sergeant Homer, always believed she had caught the wrong man and that Melkior's twin, Martin, was the real killer.

With Melkior dying in prison, a sixth, apparently identical murder gives Homer the perfect chance to prove his case. Martin Pendred is arrested but released on a technicality after the intervention of his solicitor, Helena Flemming. Then Martin disappears and another murder takes place. Former pathologist John Eisenmenger worked on the original murders, and his finely honed skills could make all the difference to this nerve-wracking case.

Tried this crime author mainly because of Sean Barrett narrating. This may be personal to me but I like crime fiction as a bit of escapism but this author obviously has professional experience of pathology and is very well versed in tumours of all varieties. I'm afraid I got fed up with it for that reason and didn't finish the book. I felt that the author's extensive knowledge of such things was a distraction from the main story and frankly I found it grim.

Tried this author because of Sean Barrett

Firstly, I definitely think that these books should be consumed in chronological order otherwise the oblique references to the back-stories of the main characters will be confusing and importance of which to the present narrative lost. The author uses his knowledge as a pathologist to include detailed descriptions of what can be gleaned about a crime during a post-mortem. A bit grisly at times but mainly interesting. Maybe as an antidote to the forensic detail there's rather a lot of long, lascivious descriptions of sexual congress that aren't always pertinent to the story but which suggest what part of the female form turns the author on! I enjoy the witty and sardonic writing style and the imaginative story and am certainly intending to listen to more in this series and follow the lives of John Eisenmenger, Di Beverley Wharton and lawyer Helena Flemming, especially if narrated by the excellent Sean Barrett.

Another gripping story

A reasonable yarn rather ruined be the writers overuse of hyperbole and pomposity
It’s written as if the storyteller were Charles Dickens which spoilt the narration for me at least

Pretentious and Pompous

yes... there's a brilliant whodunit; there's a brilliant pathology thriller; but what stands out for me is the prose: it stops me in my tracks. this author can describe 10 different smiles and I find myself stopping and saying "yes, I get that". so many times he explains things I see everyday with such clarity with the Dryest of wit. we'd.all love to go for dinner with the author and hear his words!

clever & dry = the perfect guest to tell a story

Another gripping tale written by Keith McCarthy and read by the wonderful Sean Barrett. Had me listening compulsively over a couple of days. A twisty turns plot that moves along at a good pace. Highly recommended.

Top Notch..gripping thriller.
