Rotten to the Core: Bodies and Illegal Affairs in the UK's Main Morgue

What do we know about the work of a pathologist and the inner workings of a grim place like a morgue? This book is written by a person who has gone from a regular employee to the director of the main morgue in the UK, conducted several thousand autopsies, participated in the investigation of the notorious 'Skwotwell Strangler' case, and found himself at the center of a real corruption scandal. Peter Everett has dealt with death in various forms, but the most unexpected and unpleasant revelation for him was the dishonesty, unprofessionalism, and cynicism of the living people who called themselves his colleagues. The book 'Rotten to the Core' opens a door to the grim world of morgue workers, about which most of us know nothing.
