Body Language
£8.99
Camden mortuary assistant Cassie Raven has pretty much seen it all. But this is the first time she’s come face to face with someone she knows on the slab. Someone she cared about. Her friend and mentor, Mrs E. Deeply intuitive and convinced that she can pick up the last thoughts of the dead, Cassie senses that there must be more to the ruling of an accidental death. Is her grief making her see things that aren’t there, or is her intuition right, and there’s something more sinister to her friend’s death than the ME thinks? Harbouring an innate distrust of the police, Cassie sets out to investigate and deliver justice to the woman who saved her life.

Her body is telling Cassie differently.Praise for Body Language:’Blackly humorous, with a fabulously one-of-a-kind protagonist’ Heat Magazine’Ingenious and sardonically written’ Financial Times'[A] gritty novel with an engaging heroine’ Sunday Times’A terrific, well-placed plot’ Spectator’Cassie Raven is a lot of fun to spend time with’ Big Issue’Excellent fun, compulsive and Cassie Raven is a protagonist I want to meet again soon’ James Oswald’Cassie Raven is a blast of fresh air, striding onto the crime scene like a punk superstar’ Sarah Hilary’Move over Silent Witness – Cassie Raven is an utterly compelling contemporary forensic heroine’ Isabelle Grey’A fresh and exciting new series’ Claire McGowan’One of the best series openers I’ve read in years’ Jane Casey
