I struggled with the book's structure. I would have preferred if each individual's story was told in its entirety rather than broken up across sections and chapters, interspersed with the other individuals' stories. I listened to the audiobook. Reading this as a physical or ebook would have been better so I could flip back and refresh my memory of individuals' backstories.

An engrossing look into the world of unclaimed bodies, focused on a case study of Los Angeles. It’s eye opening to learn not only how many unclaimed bodies there are in this country but the myriad of reasons for it.
