Medical Examiner Reading Challenge text Titles

Welcome to the Medical Examiner's Mystery Reading Challenge for 2025! Your goal as Medical Examiner is to read murder mysteries and attach toe tags to the unfortunate victim(s). Just read the obscure General Information page and then file your death certificate.
M U R M U R S from the M O R G U E :
Sep 24: SueC (Utah) bends the Brass Bone Saw for binding 300 toe tags!
Sep 21: Jjean (Texas) squeezes the Scarlet Sponge for slipping 400 toe tags on 400 stiff toes!
Sep 19: Good thing the Gold Gurney has wheels, as it rolls back from JenneB to Tina Hilbert, for filling out the most toe tags (1655)!

Chief Medical Examiner's journal

Monday, September 29 :

Jury listened patiently as Dr. Nancy went on. Ordinarily, her reports were like her no-nonsense, crisp suits: brief, staccato, atonal. Dismembered bodily parts were inspected and collected like shells.

Martha Grimes, writing in The Old Silent, 1989.
