Forensic Lab

Necromania: a gripping thriller of forensic expertise in the hunt for a notorious serial killer Necromania, a sequel to Incubus, is a readable and compelling narrative with believable characters, an authentic forensic setting, and a scenario that combines hideous crime with lighter interludes. Perfect for readers who enjoy a murder mystery in a forensic context and with the twists and turns of an intricate plot. Forensic experts John and Mandy (Dr John Franklin and his fiancée, Dr Amanda Wynne-Connolly) are co-directors of their own laboratory. Soon after a move to larger premises, they provide the forensic expertise in the search for a horrific serial killer who targets young women, discards their dismembered bodies, and leaves no clues behind. As more and more body parts are discovered, the police are under tremendous pressure to find the killer, and John and Mandy's involvement becomes dangerously personal. They also deal with various other cases, including the hunt for a rogue chemist who synthesises novel drugs that are sold to users with unpredictable and sometimes fatal results. Away from their lab, they live together, share their leisure interests and enjoy socialising. When asked by friends to investigate a suspected art fraud, they follow a convoluted and tenuous trail in a bid to unearth the truth.
