Investigate forensic science through a killer mystery!
Forensics is the hottest trend in teaching science. The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) says it’s a good way to motivate students who love TV shows like CSI. In this novel, detectives (and readers) try to solve a string of homicides that includes some local high school students. Fast-paced, riveting action with bookies, bullets, bloodstains, and forensics keeps readers involved in the plot and the underlying science. Chapter-end lessons cover crime scene procedures and analysis, fingerprinting, blood typing, DNA, hair and fiber collection and analysis, ballistics identification, and more.
