Body of Evidence

Body of Evidence Irene Hannon
Forensic pathologist Grace Reilly has seen her share of unusual deaths in rural Missouri. But when she begins to notice a curious pattern in autopsies of elderly residents whose demise appears to be natural, she takes her concerns to Sheriff Nate Cox. Nate is skeptical about the link Grace is seeing between the deaths--and her suspicions of foul play. But her persistence is compelling.

Body of Evidence by Irene Hannon is the third in the Triple Threat series. While the entire series is a must-read, you can probably jump in with Body of Evidence and keep up. The series focuses on three sisters, and this is Grace Reilly’s story. Hers is probably the most fascinating out of her sister’s stories in that Grace is a forensic pathologist. She took a lot of grief from her sisters in past books for choosing to hang out with dead bodies on a Saturday night rather than go out with, you know, the living.

Grace takes a job in a rural county and starts to see a pattern develop when a few elderly people die. She suspects foul play, but there isn’t enough conclusive evidence. She meets Sherriff Nate Cox, who believes her. Sparks fly between the two as they try to prove that something nefarious is happening in their small town.

I love this series, so of course Body of Evidence hit my wish list as far as a “must-read” story. The mystery took me a while to unravel, and I love Grace’s spunk. My favorite scenes are when she gets together with her sisters. Their camaraderie is quite entertaining.

If you are looking for a fast-paced and enjoyable book to kick off your fall, look no further than Body of Evidence on October 4th.
