Beverley MacdonaldEverything you wanted to know about crime, this is one of the first six titles launching the fantastic new non-fiction series, 'It's True!'.
Psst! It's true! This is the best book on crime you'll ever read!
Did you know that maggots can help solve crimes? That right-handed criminals run away to the left when they leave a crime scene? That the people who are best at detecting lies are not police but mothers?
Once you had to catch a crook red-handed to prove him guilty. Now we can use the pattern of a bloodstain, fingerprints, computers and DNA samples to solve crimes. Even so, mysteries remain, like the Shark Arm murder and the strange case of DB Cooper, who jumped out of a plane with $200 000 and was never seen again . . .
Astound your friends with gory fact and stories of true crime.
