However, it suffers from zero editing - it's Edgar ALLAN Poe, for crying out loud! - and a juvenile writing style. Sometimes one feels the writer is on a roll and the editor in one's brain goes to sleep, but before long some monstrosity of a word salad presents itself, in the form of weather descriptions or references to literature/film. A couple are ok, we get the point!Yes, it's a horrific subject matter - and fascinating (or we wouldn't want to buy the book), but it's ok. You don't have to try to impress the reader with detailed personal descriptions (except of the morgue residents!) of sheriff deputies etc., stormy, gloomy, hot, cold, nasty weather on the autopsy day - we don't care about that either! Just forget the weather unless it has something to do with the cases being discussed! We don't care!Never, ever publish without an OUTSIDE editor (a writer who has himself for an editor is a fool). And e-book publishers - please try to keep at least a few blinks on the quality of the books, instead of only the quantity - of cash. Reading text that's sprinkled with"care-fully, joy-fully, sprinkl-ing" in the middle of a line (and thus no need to divide the word) is really ANNOY-ING. ### ⭐⭐ Authors try too hard *by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2011* R. Shultz's review pretty much nails it. This is not a bad book, but I was a disappointed to find the authors trying to paint a picture of ... well, everything. When I read a book like this, I want to learn medical stuff; I don't want to hear what music was playing in the morgue, and there are only so many times you can read about wintergreen oil before you start to wonder what this guy's editor was thinking (actually, whoever edited this book should probably be fired). Lots of repetition; you're told several times that the author is really into weightlifting, chess and Kinky Friedman, and more than once you're reminded that people working in the morgue and use wintergreen oil to mask the smell of death tend to develop an aversion to wintergreen flavored things. It's also very poorly organized and jumps around a lot, you'll be in the middle of learning about what happened to Patient X and suddenly he's telling you about another patient from 5 years ago for apparently no reason. He'll build up suspense - for example (and this is just an example I made up, this isn't from the book, I'm just trying to give you an idea of what's in there) - he'll set up a scene where the patient appeared to have died from a stroke, then throw in the question "but was it REALLY a stroke, or was it something more sinister?" build things up a bit and then it turns out no, they died of a stroke. That's fine and all, but it would have been more interesting to see at least a couple of cases where the cause of death turned out to be radically different from what it appeared to be in the beginning. I ended up having to skim quite a bit of it, looking for stuff about autopsies that were actually performed.So ... meh. Not terrible, but in retrospect I probably should have passed on it. I wish I could recommend buying this book, but I just can't. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Read! *by M***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2020* Just finished the book. I know Dr. Cohle, he is very interesting and has a great sense of humor. I purchased his other book, and will start reading it soon. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/30772744-cause-of-death-forensic-files-of-a-medical-examiner](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/30772744-cause-of-death-forensic-files-of-a-medical-examiner) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
