2. The Burning Man: Chapter Two

mortem

Available for over a year

When the badly burned remains of Tom Harris were found in a nature reserve in East Anglia, initial signs pointed to suicide. His wife was distraught, but not surprised. But a death like this is always treated as suspicious. Was there more to the story than self-immolation? Perhaps a wet-nosed, waggy-tailed expert can help. Enter Reqs, a Fire Investigation Dog. This episode includes references to death, suicide and dissection, which some listeners may find distressing. Our victim is fictional, but the science and the scientists are very real. A Whistledown production for BBC Sounds. Presenter: Carla Valentine George the Pathologist: Matt Addis The Voice: Jude Akuwudike Producer: Deborah Dudgeon Co-Producer and Sound Designer: Steve Bond Writer: Nina Millns Script Editor: David K. Barnes Original Music: Aaron May with vocals by Alyssa Production Team: Kate Holland, Nina Kruse, Mend Mariwany
