About this ebook

Fatal Flesh

When moonlighting medical students "harvesting" skin from a corpse for temporary use accidentally take it from the wrong donor, the results are catastrophic:a New York City hospital ward is destroyed in a bloodbath, and an elderly professor, admitted for a routine skin graft, is suddenly the city's most wanted fugitive.

Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully are the only ones to suspect something more ominous than a medical procedure gone awry. As the FBI agents investigating the "X-Files"--strange and inexplicable cases the Bureau wants to keep hidden--Mulder and Scully are determined to track down the forces they suspect are behind the murderer.

While the police hunt the fleeing professor, Mulder and Scully track the skin that was grafted onto him, a trail that leads from the morgue to the headquarters of a cutting-edge biotech company to the jungles of Thailand. Together they begin to uncover an unholy and totally deniable alliance between a battle-trained plastic surgeon, international politicians, and a legendary Thai monster known as the "Skin-Eater."

Death and deceasing who have disturbed people's schedule, or the calendar itself get the documentation of that. Odor smell and awful color and shapes of severed body parts. Two agents working in the distance from the FBI make a tiny, neat file about it. All the remains belong to humans by the time agents take a close look. How the waste which could grow toxic could be left for us to handle; reserving space for debts owed. Some disposals upset everyone who knows so fault is laid on the mutilated human. The record is kept in vain with no real closure for more X Files volumes.
