false http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1185382168m/1574763.jpg 46465 19 Three years ago, David Hunter moved to rural Norfolk to escape his life in London, his gritty work in forensics, and a tragedy that nearly destroyed him. Working as a simple country doctor, seeing his lost wife and daughter only in his dreams, David struggles to remain uninvolved when the corpse of a woman is found in the woods, a macabre sign from her killer decorating her body. In one horrifying instant, the quiet summer countryside that had been David's refuge has turned malevolent—and suddenly there is no place to hide. The village of Manham is tight-knit, far from the beaten path. As a newcomer, Dr. Hunter is immediately a suspect. Once an expert in analyzing human remains, he reluctantly joins the police investigation—and when another woman disappears, it soon becomes personal. Because this time she is someone David knows, someone who has managed to penetrate the icy barrier around his heart. With a killer's bizarre and twisted methods screaming out to him, with a brooding countryside beset with suspicion, David can feel the darkness gathering around him. For as the clock ticks down on a young woman's life, David must follow a macabre trail of clues—all the way to its final, horrifying conclusion. 1318175 book 26 9 2006 The Chemistry of Death (David Hunter, #1) total:334|5:81|4:139|3:94|2:16|1:4| 334 1279 483 63 1657060 0440335957 9780440335955 13 1 3.83 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1186455422m/1657060.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1657060.The_Chemistry_of_Death 3 1 false Wed Apr 30 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Nov 29 00:37:41 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 29 01:48:22 -0800 2008 more...]]> 46465 0385340044 9780385340045 209 45 3.83 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170330487m/46465.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/46465.The_Chemistry_of_Death 4 0 false Tue Jun 09 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 07 13:37:59 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 20:45:10 -0700 2009 Whispers of the Dead, & enjoyed it enormously which inspired me to go back & grab the first two.
