This history of criminals and how to catch them is full of crazy but true stuff. From torch-bearing vigilantes to hi-tech crime scene investigators, this book joins thief-trackers in action. It journeys back to the time when a crook had to be caught red-handed to be proven guilty, to the present and how we use science to solve crimes. Even so, mysteries remain, like the Shocking Shark Arm Murder.
