Teasing Secrets From The Dead Disappointing.  I expected this to be more like case studies of cases she had worked on.  Instead it was more like a biography and a rather boring biography.  It was all I did this.....then I did that...and whoops! A case! And I did this...
 
You get the picture.
 
A likeable writing style, just not was I was wanting to read. I got through nearly half, so I feel confident that I can rate this 2 stars - liked it, but just barely.

One of the most interesting people in forensics you could find

Dr. Emily Craig is charming, funny, and respectful while telling the stories of someone of the most horrible events in US history from an insider’s perspective. If you can handle the more disgusting aspects of death, this is well worth your time to read. Truly fascinating.

If you're looking for a good forensic anthropologist memoir, you'd be better off with William R. Maples's Dead Men Do Tell Tales; if you're looking for a good solving-historical-forensic-mysteries memoir, same, or go for Michael M. Baden's Unnatural Death.

...what?

While this is a memoir, there is also a wealth of procedural detail. Very interesting.
