LONDON, 1890. As Jack the Ripper stalks the streets, Inspector Edmond Hillinghead-the city's most diligent detective-applies his skills to an even harder case. The victim is an unidentified male. The killer may have powerful allies. And Edmond's darkest secret may be exposed if he gets too close to the truth.... LONDON, 1940. As the Blitz rains bombs down on the city, Inspector Charles Whiteman reigns over its streets. He escaped the Nazis in Poland only to run the very rackets he's supposed to shut down. But when he discovers a mysterious murder victim, his double life may be destroyed... LONDON, 2014. As racist rioters wreak havoc in the name of their prejudiced patriotism, Detective Sergeant Shahara Hasan leads the fight against them. As a Muslim cop, she's English to the core. But the corpse she's uncovered may reveal something rotten deep below the surface... LONDON, 2050. As the mind-scrambling pulsewave plagues the last survivors of a terrifying techno-apocalypse, the amnesiac young woman known only as Maplewood can barely understand the body she's discovered. But this ritual killing is identical to those from decades past-and the link between them all is stronger, and stranger, than anyone could dream... In BODIES, writer Si Spencer teams up with Meghan Hetrick, Dean Ormston, Tula Lotay and Phil Winslade-four incredible artists, one for each era-to slice open the modern murder mystery and uncover the strange secret heart within! Collects issues #1-8.

Four detectives. Four timelines. One body.

Not quite sure what to make of this graphic novel. I liked it, but it was not the straightforward murder mystery I was expecting. Intriguing and original concept with a laudable message. Four different artists for the four different timelines worked well. Look forward to trying the Netflix adaptation soon!

Not my genre at all……but WOW!!! 😵

I just finished watching the Netflix adaption of this graphic novel and I enjoyed every puzzling, confusing, crazy minute! Super smart and the different timelines make it really engaging.

Had it not been for the 19th century piece I wouldn‘t have been sucked in. So glad I was.

Love - it is the crux of the story.

jlhammar Oooh, definitely going on my to-watch list! 5mo
Cuilin Stephen Graham is a must watch for me. Great actor. Added to watchlist. Thanks. 5mo

Clwojick @LauraBrook it was so good. It smelled delicious, and I was thinking it would make a yummy candle scent or a body lotion scent. 😄 6y

When you attempt to read a quick graphic novel to pass the time until you can open your #secretsantagoespostal package .... BUT your lazy bones cat isn't having any of that, and decides it's best if you patiently sit there and be a cat couch instead.

I just can't get into this book. It has things I like—interesting and changing points of view, jumps in time, and a mystery/conspiracy—but I still just don't really want to read it. Maybe later.

Fascinating story of murder and mystery across decades. Switches between 4 separate timelines with separate characters, so if you don't like this style you won't like this comic. I didn't really get it for a while, so I just went along for the ride and the end really ties up the connections between all the timelines. So give it a chance if you decide to read this 😊✨
