canoe-maker

A forensic pathologist who performs autopsies. After the organs are removed from the thoracic and abdominal cavities, what's left somewhat resembles a canoe.

"Gertrude, whose heretofore delicate beauty had ceased to continue living a few hours prior to the arrival of Inspector Lee Xiong 'Rusty' Fong, lay peacefully now among the daffodils and butterflies -- as well as among abundant evidence of foul play. Though Inspector Fong suspected he knew which wound would prove to be the fatal one -- that being the one that put two meters' distance between Gertrude's fourth and fifth cervical vertebrae -- he knew, nonetheless, that this was a case for the canoe-maker, Dr. Penelope 'Chui' Frankelburger."
