Just two months before the September 11th terrorist attacks, Dr. Judy Melinek began her training as a NYC forensic pathologist. With her husband, T.J., and their toddler, Daniel, holding down the home front, Judy threw herself into the fascinating world of death investigation-performing autopsies, investigating death scenes, and counseling grieving relatives. Working Stiff takes readers behind the police tape of some of the most harrowing deaths in the Big Apple, including a firsthand account of the events of September 11th, the subsequent anthrax bioterrorism attack, and the disastrous crash of American Airlines Flight 587. Lively, action-packed, and loaded with mordant wit, Working Stiff explores both the challenges and rewards of shuttling between the domains of the living and the dead.
