Review: The Coroner

The Coroner by Jennifer Graeser Dornbush
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Emily Hartford, the daughter of a medical examiner, is following in her father's footsteps.

When she turned thirteen, her parents told her to make a wish for anything she wanted (within reason). She chose to ride along with her father on his investigation of an accident case. She also wanted to be included when the autopsies were done. That was the beginning of her planning and working towards her career in medicine.

She was in her third year of surgical residency in Chicago when her father suffered a heart attack, and she returned home to Freeport, Michigan, to help him recuperate. She and her father had been estranged for several years, since her mother's death. Emily never thought she would return to Freeport and its small town atmosphere.

She had become engaged to a doctor in Chicago, but her return to Freeport put that into question, and Freeport seemed more exciting to her all the time.

First in a series mystery for this author, readers will look forward to her next book.
