Review of 'The anatomy lesson' on 'Goodreads'

I had high hopes for this book as it combined my two favorite book genres: mysteries and medicine.

And I wasn't disappointed (more or less).

Dr Kurtz is a Manhattan surgeon while Barent is the policeman assigned to uncover the miscreant who neatly sliced and diced anatomist Mahoney.

The medical details seemed much better than the usual mysteries concerning doctors and the mystery was decent.

If you like your medical mystery with a dose of hard-hitting (and slightly disturbing) walk on the wild side of New York City, then this is definitely a book for you.
