Bodies We've Buried - by Jarrett Hallcox & Amy Welch (Paperback)

About the Book

Shocking, uncensored, and sometimes darkly humorous, "Bodies We've Buried" the true story of what goes on in "the Harvard of hellish violence" ("Washington Post"), also known as the National Forensic Academy.

Book Synopsis

Two National Forensic Science Institute administrators invite readers into what the Washington Post calls "the Harvard of hellish violence"-the only hands-on CSI school of its kind where students are trained in burial recovery with actual human remains. With exclusive access to a world normally off-limits to the public, this is the first book to go behind the scenes of the ten-week course that discloses the uncensored realities of burial exhumations and the fascinating art of forensic investigation.
