Customer Reviews

Wasn't Exactly What I Expected

I purchased this book as part of my exploration of possible jobs as I transition from one type of employment to the next. I didn't realize, until it arrived, that the book is written with a much-younger audience in mind. I do like the way it is written, to have the reader attempting to solve a crime with the trace evidence that was found at the crime scene. At the same time, because I'm a bit older than the intended audience, this book is not really appropriate for my needs. That's why I'm giving it four stars instead of five.
