If you have a weak stomach, some of these cases may bother you
Absolutely ONE OF THE BEST books that I have read this year! I absolutely loved the detail that went into each of the cases, as well as the development of the police officers who formed the murder squad. Scotland Yard helped to mold the development of how cases, evidence, and many other facets of each investigation would proceed in the future. While some of the tactics used by officers would raise eyebrows today, it was the norm at the time.
Each of the cases was laid out so that even those who are not familiar with the criminal justice system could follow the information that was presented here. I did not want this book to end! I found it fabulous and interesting. There were a few cases that shocked me to my core, but the justice that was meted out was somewhat of a consolation.
Grab this book now - its perfect for summer reading (okay, any time of year reading).
