Customer Reviews

Best of the Books

This book wins hands down between 'The Idiot's Guide to Private Investigation'. 'The Idiot's Guide...' leaves a lot of unanswered questions. 'The Private Investigator Handbook' goes into a lot more depth answering these questions suggesting the reader what to do, how to do it, and when to do it. This book is a must!

Well worth buying. Useful and Accurate information

The book was even better than I expected. It has very good, useful information. Each topic is thoroughly and clearly touched upon. Very little of the information would be outdated today (01/2008). This is the best book I've ever seen for people either cheating on a lover or wishing to catch a cheating lover. There's great information on protecting your identity and also on finding out information about others. There's also info on useful equipment that you might want to buy. This book was well worthing the money.
