In 1991, Sergeant Bill Hubbard was a member of the Lubbock Police Department,
assigned to the identification section. What begins as a routine task sends Hubbard
on a collision course with a corrupt forensic pathologist and “power-hungry district attorney.” As one reader said, “Well written, quick paced and quite a ride. It's easy to get lost in this book,
until it sends a shiver down your spine when you remember this is a true story.”
