FREE: Chemistry of Death by Simon Beckett

The listing, Chemistry of Death by Simon Beckett has ended.

Used paperback in very good condition. Just some creasing on the spine. This is the first time I have read this author and I absolutely loved the book.


Three years ago, Dr. David Hunter moved to rural Norfolk to escape his gritty work in forensics and a tragedy that nearly destroyed him. But in one horrifying instant, the quiet summer countryside that had been David's refuge turns malevolent.

As a newcomer, David is immediately suspect when a young woman's corpse is found in the woods, a macabre sign from her killer decorating her body. But when another woman disappears--a woman who has managed to penetrate the icy barrier around David's heart--he reluctantly joins the police investigation, lending his expertise in the analysis of human remains. As the clock ticks down on the young woman's life, a killer's twisted methods scream out to him--and Dr. Hunter must follow the bizarre trail of clues all the way to its final, shocking conclusion.
