About The Book Book: Dissection of a MurderAuthor: Jo Murray Standalone or Series: Standalone Publisher: Pan Macmillan Publication Date (UK): 7th May 2026 My Review Dissection of a Murder may be Murray’s debut legal thriller, but it’s not her first novel, having previously written women’s fiction under the name Roxie Cooper. What connects both genres is the thread of law running through them.
