      After Sam and Quincy have spoken to Angie Wilson and she drives away, the rear license plate of his Coroner's (Ford) station wagon can be seen and it reads [E]999853, which is the same as the license plate on most of the Coroner's (AMC Matador) station wagons used in prior seasons.

    A wonderful change of pace.

    There is an awful fire and over a dozen people are killed. After an exhausting night, Quincy stomps off and Astin is left in the morgue. However, another body is discovered and Astin himself decides to do the autopsy. It seems pretty cut and dry. However, the next day, Quincy comes in and has different findings. Astin naturally believes that he's wrong and begins to doubt himself--going so far as to resign. Now it's up to Quincy the crusader to come to the rescue and get to the bottom of exactly what happened and determine whether or not Astin was correct in his finding.

    This is an excellent change of pace having Astin doing some hands-on work in the lab. It's also a reasonably interesting plot that kept my attention. I particularly liked the scene where Quincy was hanging out with strippers--and you'll just have to see this for yourself! Overall, a novel plot--one that is well worth your time.
