The Chemistry of Death

Day 12 - #Top20Series #20Days20Series
#DrDavidHunterSeries #SimonBeckett

Dr David Hunter was once a high-profile forensic anthropologist and all too familiar with the different faces of death, until a devastating personal tragedy made him turn his back on his former life and career. Now hidden away as a country doctor, Hunter's past is a secret he hopes will remain buried.

Excellent series with interesting characters and plots.

Apparently, I seem to be unable to enjoy the books every one else loves. I've tried one of Simon Becketts books before and it was a So-So. Now I gave him another chance and was bored throughout the whole book. Sorry, no more Simon Beckett for me 😌

Buechersuechtling I love that series but don‘t worry, to know what you don‘t like surely leaves more space on the shelf for books you like. 🤓 5y

Jari-chan @Buechersuechtling I already thought that you like this series very much 😄 I'm glad you can enjoy Becketts books 😊 5y

The Chemistry of Death | Simon Beckett

The first Hunter book of the series. Thanks to @EadieB who sent me one of the series, so of course I had to start at beginning. There was a bit of a twist at the end! The hunt is on for a serial killer and Hunter is called in to use his skills to identify bodies. But hes trying to run away from his past. #SeriesRead @TheSpineView #WinterGames #ReadNosedReindeer #impulseread @StayCurious @Clwojick

Crazeedi @EadieB I read this from overdrive, so no, I'll be looking for the next one! I think you sent me number 3?? 5y

The first book in one of my favourite all-time series (Dr David Hunter) is currently available in the U.K. for 99p. David is a forensic anthropologist. I strongly recommend this series.

The Chemistry of Death by Simon Beckett is a suspense crime thriller. It was great adventure! The story is well-developed, main character is likable and there was unexpected scenes. I enjoyed reading it and now I want to read another books in this series.

so-so

I managed to read the fourth book of this series a while ago, so I figured I should finally start with the first one 😄 a decent thriller, but nothing too shocking here. It was not so hard figure out the murderer before the hero did 🤔

julesG I was also disappointed that I had figured it out way before the hero. 8y
