If I can hold of a secondhand copy I guess I'll really enjoy reading about someone's loved one being bludgeoned or stabbed .... 
Comments by a professor criminology, a senior lecturer in criminology and a lecturer in crime science:
Val Dobson: "he solves the unsolvable"???
James Treadwell: I shouldn't giggle but yes, now I've seen that full strap line on Amazon, it is hard not too. Yet that makes me feel worse, because the subject deserves better. It is people's real lives (and in some cases the end of them) it deserves to be done with some decorum and dignity.
...
Tim Turner: Couldn’t agree more, the most unusual thing about 99% of the murderers I’ve met is how ‘normal’ they are. This kind of glamorisation is appalling.
...
Dr Ella Cockbain: I seem to remember him going for a similarly simplistic & sensationalist take around child sexual abuse, that really wasn’t helpful either.

I hadn't read the full Amazon blurb, but here it is:
Death has a unique smell. I've been in the presence of people who have killed; I've been in rooms where people have been killed. I've seen the unspeakable things human beings are capable of. None of that puts me off my aim; I want to see those people caught, convicted and sent to jail.
Mark Williams-Thomas is a former police detective and multi-award-winning investigative journalist. He has been at the centre of some of the most high-profile investigations of recent years involving killers and paedophiles.
In this gripping and unflinching book, Mark reveals how he has pieced together these complex cases. Through tireless research and perseverance, Mark takes us on a journey of discovery gathering and pursuing new evidence, earning the trust of silent witnesses and sharing the personal toll this extraordinary job takes on him.
Mark's story is a relentless and inspiring one; it is the story of a life dedicated to justice. |

Yes H it more than likely was a jumper but it does not mean mental health issues how can you know ? There of course will be an inquest and suicide verdict may be returned but based on what ?
Presumption is not good for a detective or a intrepid reporter. |

The train can't move and there are delays on the line via Waterloo.
Mark has decided already that it's a jumper with mental health problems and his thoughts are with loved ones.
Now could it be,
Yes a jumper.
An unfortunate line worker
Someone taking a short cut across the lines ( many of these are mistaken as suicide )
That if the person jumped they did it because they have nothing, no family no future nothing to do with mental health.
Maybe they have just been falsely accused or accused or convicted of something they did not do or more than likely none of the above.
Proves he jumps to conclusions and off the back of this he wants to show how empathetic he is, a real good guy.

He might have been told it was a suicide.
Anyone who jumps on the tracks, for whatever reason, cant be thinking straight. |
