For a former medical examiner, writing about the horrors of his job was way to slay personal demons

North Georgia College & State University forensics instructor Joe Morgan has written a book about his life as a medical examiner in both the Atlanta area and New Orleans. He recently was signing copies of his book "Blood Beneath My Feet" and Books-A-Million at Lakeshore Mall.
Joseph Scott Morgan spent his entire career — and a good portion of his life in general — seeing things that most people would rather hide from view. From internal organs splattered on walls to inner demons successfully making their play to be seen, Morgan knows all too well what happens when you get caught between dark and light. "My life had so many shades of gray with it," said Morgan, who was a senior investigator for the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office in Atlanta for 14 years.
