A gripping collection of real cases where tiny forensic clues expose killers, crack heists, and overturn impossible mysteries, Crime Scene Investigations reveals how science uncovers truth, frees the innocent, and shatters the myth of the perfect crime.

It was a bite mark that finally confirmed Ted Bundy as a murderer
It was a handwritten note that gave away the identity of the Lindbergh baby kidnapper
It was a tiny fibre that identified the mastermind behind the Antwerp Diamond Heist

No matter how meticulous criminals are in covering up their steps, they always leave some trace behind. Just when a crime seems unsolvable, the tiniest residue of a substance can turn the case on its head.

Thanks to the application of forensics, serial killers, kidnappers, thieves, fraudsters and terrorists have been brought to justice, while others wrongfully convicted have been exonerated.

This compendium of true-crime case studies covers some of the most fascinating crime scene investigations from around the world and throughout history. From the Green River Killer to the Oklahoma City Bomber, and from the Enron Scandal to the Hatton Garden Heist, the crime scene investigators left no stone unturned to uncover the shocking truth.
