All That Remains follows her daily work in labs, cemeteries, and crime scenes, showing how death offers insight rather than a simple ending. Written In Bone maps the human skeleton from skull to feet, revealing how bones quietly record a lifetime of diet, injury, and movement. Together, the set pairs scientific rigor with warmth and humor, making it a gift for true-crime readers and science lovers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nProfessor Sue Black has spent decades working at the intersection of anatomy, forensic science, and human tragedy, and both books in this set draw directly on that career. All That Remains: A Life in Death is a memoir built around real cases, laboratories, and mortuaries, in which Black reflects on mortality with unusual candor, compassion, and wit. She walks readers through her own path into forensic anthropology, the identification work she has carried out in war zones and disaster sites, and the quiet dignity she brings to handling human remains. Written In Bone takes a more structural approach, moving methodically through the skeleton, from skull to feet, to demonstrate how each bone holds clues to age, sex, lifestyle, and cause of death. The book won the CWA Gold Dagger for Non-Fiction, recognizing its skillful blend of forensic detail and storytelling. Read together, the two titles complement each other: one offers a career-spanning narrative of a scientist confronting death daily, while the other zooms in on the physical evidence itself, explaining how forensic anthropologists read a skeleton the way historians read a document. Both books share Black's distinctive voice, one that resists sensationalism in favor of empathy, precision, and genuine curiosity about what remains after a life ends. For readers who enjoy popular science, true crime, or memoir, this set delivers accessible expertise from one of the field's most respected voices, translating years of casework and academic research into narratives that inform as much as they move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Sunday Times bestselling paperbacks from a leading forensic anthropologist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten In Bone won the CWA Gold Dagger Award for Non-Fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlends real casework, memoir, and science for an accessible read\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift for true-crime fans, science readers, and forensic anthropology students\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback set, ideal for shelf display or gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat addition to a home library, book club pick, or holiday season gift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAll That Remains: A Life in Death — A candid memoir following Professor Sue Black through laboratories, mortuaries, and crime scenes as she reflects on a career built around death and identification.\u003cbr\u003e\nWritten In Bone: Hidden Stories in What We Leave Behind — A skeleton-by-skeleton journey through the human body, showing how bones preserve evidence of a person's life, health, and history, and winner of the CWA Gold Dagger for Non-Fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nProfessor Sue Black is one of the world's leading forensic anthropologists and anatomists, known for her identification work following conflicts, disasters, and criminal investigations across the globe.
