I found it fascinating hearing about how the world of forensic pathology changed throughout the course of his career, how that impacted him and the field as a whole. He was very human in his recounting of various cases, being open about his struggles and failures.
It is a well-balanced read, both between his personal life and work, and talking about famous and every-day cases. Other authors may have relied too heavily on the cases readers would recognise (such as Stephen Lawrence or the Marchionness disaster) but Dr Shepherd made the unknown cases just as interesting and really showed the full picture of his work.
It is a difficult read at times, but so so worth it. This is a unique insight into a career that remains glamourised and mystified by modern tv shows, shedding light on what it is really like and the effects the career can have on those that stick with it.
