Summary:

Dr Porntip Rojanasunan is Thailand'smost famous forensic scientist who is instantly recognisable by her punk-rockhairstyle and fashionable style. Nicknamed 'Dr Death' by the mass media, herfindings often contradicted those of the Thai police, leading to numerousclashes between the two. She gained international attention for her work onidentifying victims of the 2004 tsunami and has since raised public awarenessof forensic science in Thailand. In her second book, Dr Porntip delvesinto some of her most well-known cases, including the grisly murder of medicalstudent Jenjira Ployangunsri, the mysterious disappearance of Thai-Muslim humanrights activist Khun Somchai Neelapajit, and the death of Malaysian politicalaide Teoh Beng Hock. She also discusses the role of forensic science instabilising the violent insurgency in southern Thailand and reflects on themilestones in her life. Brutally honest, Dr Porntip never flinches from thegruesome possibilities as she unearths the truth despite obstacles at everyturn.
