Jefferson Bass

We went tonight to see/hear Jefferson Bass, represented by his real life authors, Dr Bill Bass of UT's Body Farm and John Jefferson. They were accompanied by Art Bohannon, the nationally renowned finger-print expert, who appears in all their books.

They spoke for about half an hour about their new book, The Body Thief, which is based on the real-life problem of crematoriums that harvest body parts before cremating the rest of the remains, and about how the Body Farm came to be.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first three books in the series and highly recommend them to anyone who likes murder mysteries and/or forensic anthropology.

They have videos of the Body Farm itself at their website: www.jeffersonbass.com
