Customer Reviews

Very informative

Good information and shared experience for some one that is studying for becoming a forensic investigator in the near future.

The detectors are far less interesting than the detected

Encyclopedia of crime scene forensic fetes and forensic scientists. As the second in a series (following A Question of Evidence: The Casebook of Great Forensic Controversies, from Napoleon to O.J.), many of the cases are lesser known, but no less fascinating for the detective work involved in solving them. Also included are capsule definitions of forensic terms and biographies of famous forensic scientists. And what does it say about the book or the reader that the detectors are far less interesting than the detected?

Murder Two

A great book with many stories, as well as explinations of meanings and how they work (blood spatter.) It's a very fast and easy read, it kept me very interested because I didn't feel like I was ever "stuck" on one story. I can't wait to get the first book now!
