Dr. Samantha Owens is getting ready to start her first semester teaching when she receives a letter from a man saying he is dead and asking her to do an autopsy on him.  This is a complicated case.  Sam is trying to be a teacher and stay away from cases but keeps getting pulled back into them.  We continue to see relationships grow and develop between the main characters.  Each thing they learn makes them question what they have learned previously.  The plot is tightly woven and well written.  I would recommend this novel.  I think it would be best enjoyed by reading the previous books in the series first.
