Case Sensitive Summary

Case Sensitive: A gripping forensic mystery set in Camden by A. K. Turner

'I LOVE THIS SERIES!' ELLY GRIFFITHS

'TIMELY, GRITTY AND DARK' PAULA HAWKINS

When the dead are silent, she will be their voice . . .

Goth-girl mortuary technician Cassie Raven has seen thousands of dead bodies but when a drowned man knocks against the hull of her canalboat, it's a bit too close to home.

Cassie is grappling with the loss of her 'gift' - her conviction that she could sense the last thoughts of the dead - and at first the mystery man with the golden-green eyes isn't sharing his secrets.

But the case gets under her skin and when Cassie joins forces with Detective Phyllida Flyte, together they start to dredge up secrets from the past . . .

Yet someone is watching, someone who's ready to kill to stop those secrets coming to the surface.
