mortem - 5. Blood Lines: Chapter Two

In the mortuary, Carla Valentine has been asked to remove a crucial clue from Mrs Thompson’s body. A section of her damaged skull.

Because there could be more to these fatal injuries than meets the eye.

And to see them in all their minutiae, could reveal that the devil truly is in the detail. Enter engineer Professor Mark Williams.

This episode includes references to death, violence and dissection, which some listeners may find distressing. Our victim is fictional, but the science and the scientists are very real.

A Whistledown production for BBC Sounds.
