## Description

desertcart.com: Unnatural Causes: Gripping true stories from the Sunday Times bestselling forensic pathologist eBook : Shepherd, Dr Richard: Kindle Store

Review: Unnaturally superb writing too - I read a review about Shepherd’s book in the London Sunday Times. I’m a sucker on the subject and bought the Kindle at an absurd price the same day. The first thing I noticed is that Shepherd is one hellacious good writer. From the first sentence and paragraph, I was reading a gifted writer. The writing just gets better as you progress. He incorporates his family, related social and technical debates in time and place, and everyday details in an extraordinary effective manner. He traces an increasingly vile trial evolution into withering defense 'personal incompetence' strategies. Shepherd grabs first sentence attention as he narrates his approach into Hungerford, England in his Cessna 170 in the current day. He has a panic attack. He writes one of the best written witnesses to an attack that I've seen in writing. Boom! He doesn’t call it a panic attack but that’s precisely what he describes I have the damn things at the strangest moments like this. After 30-some years as a leading forensic voice in some 28,000 autopsies, Shepherd begins here with his career recollection of his last visit to Hungerford. Shepherd writes his images precisely … first cadaver, first autopsy, etc. Fantastic fidelity. His style transports you into the seen without notice. A secondary theme is understanding the nature of "truth" and its perspective intensive demands to understand. "Truth" matures. Shephard is keen enough to notice the nuance. Here’s a genuinely unique 5-star read that's on the way to best seller. Here is the story of raw yeoman work. Life. Death. The author has the master skill of the storyteller and forensic expert. It’s a rare combo to produce such a grippingly interesting read. Surely among the years top non-fiction reads.
Review: Interesting read full of great insights - I enjoyed this quick read. I find the subject matter interesting, and to hear of his life struggles with work and home life was relatable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting read full of great insights
*by A***D on July 24, 2023*

I enjoyed this quick read. I find the subject matter interesting, and to hear of his life struggles with work and home life was relatable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very moving , very interesting.
*by T***N on March 23, 2026*

Dr. Shepherd gives his life to the world in many ways. Along with the rubber-neckers who can't resist the gore there are the few scientists, seekers of truth. Truth was a constant theme throughout, along with fairness and a will to progress and improve which seem almost ironic in the face of the actual "progress" that occurred later in his career. I award five stars as one who admires these values and the grace with which he pursued them and wrote of both his successes and his failures. Well done, Doc.
