{"product_id":"9780624095989","title":"Trace: Case Studies of a Forensic Pathologist in Africa","description":"\u003cp\u003eForensic pathologist Ryan Blumenthal works in a world few people are ever exposed to — the mortuary. He spends his days among the dead, uncovering how they died and determining whether a crime was committed. To date, he has performed over 13,000 autopsies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Trace, Ryan takes readers behind the scenes of some of the strange death scenes he has attended, including a shallow grave beside a river where a body was found with an amputated finger. He also shares rare and unusual cases, such as a man who may have died from autoerotic asphyxia and a suspected poisoning that turned out to be a shooting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis work has brought him face to face with many forms of unnatural death, including lightning strikes, wild animal attacks, muti killings, and even a solitary wasp sting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough it all, Ryan sees himself as a voice for the voiceless, striving to bring justice to the dead and truth to their loved ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Ryan+Blumenthal\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eRyan Blumenthal\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ryan Blumenthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47395091710115,"sku":"9780624095989","price":252.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780624095989_99b9f0a2-2391-423b-849b-8a0acc6ecc44.jpg?v=1776803146","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780624095989","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
