Meet Cassie Raven. Goth. Londoner. Mortuary assistant. As introduced in Cut and Paste and Open and Shut, two crime shorts for BBC Radio 4.
A.K. Turner's first foray into crime fiction was a detective thriller trilogy, written under the pen name Anya Lipska, following the adventures of Janusz Kiszka, a fixer to London's Polish community. All three books won critical acclaim and were twice optioned as a possible TV series. In her other life as a TV producer and writer, A.K. makes documentaries and drama-docs on subjects as diverse as the Mutiny on the Bounty, the sex lives of Neanderthals, and Monty Don's Italian Gardens.
A. K. Turner spins science into spellbinding storytelling

A first-rate crime novel. Mortuary assistant Cassie is a terrific
character - our guide through a fascinating, darkly humorous and
sometimes grisly world. I loved it
*Elly Griffiths*
Introduces us to a fabulously one-of-a-kind protagonist. Blackly
humorous, we're so ready for more
*HEAT Magazine*
Hooked from the first chapter and stayed up until the wee small
hours to finish Body Language. What a wonderful creation is Cassie
Raven! You should all go out and pre-order it right now. Excellent
fun, compulsive and Cassie Raven is a protagonist I want to meet
again soon. Five stars!
*James Oswald*
An immersive world with a fascinating lead, this makes for a fresh
and exciting new series
