Barbara Butcher was early in her recovery from alcoholism when she found an unexpected lifeline: a job at the Medical Examiner’s Office in New York City. The second woman ever hired for the role of Death Investigator in Manhattan, she was the first to last more than three months. The work was gritty, demanding, morbid, and sometimes dangerous—and she loved it. In What the Dead Know, she writes with the kind of New York attitude and bravado you might expect from decades in the field, investigating more than 5,500 death scenes, 680 of which were homicides.

This was my first go-around on the subject matter, and author/narrator. I’m now seeking more of the same. Such compelling and interesting cases she had to work through. Loved the exposure to the details of the scenes, wounds and evidence. Also, she mixed in just the right amount of, who she was, and what effect the job had on her. The narration can ruin an otherwise well written book— not in this case; it was the ideal match for the story. Well done Ms. Butcher!
