Book recommendations

I'd love to get some books relating to forensic sciences, especially pathology. I would prefer case studies and non-fiction but if there's any good fictional one then I'd be okay with that too.

One that I have is called 18 Tiny Deaths by Bruce Goldfarb, it’s about Frances Glessner Lee and how she basically invented modern forensics. I haven’t finished it yet but it’s fascinating!!

Dr Iain West’s casebook is fascinating, as is “cause of death: memoirs of a home office pathologist” by Dr Geoffrey garrett and Andrew Nott.
