Detective Files #2

A crime may last only minutes. The search for the truth can continue for decades.

Behind every famous investigation are the details that headlines leave behind: the overlooked witness, the unexplained movement, the piece of evidence that refuses to fit and the decision that sends detectives down an entirely different path.

Detective Files #2 returns to the files for four compelling true-crime investigations in which nothing is quite as straightforward as it first appears.

Following the evidence from the crime scene through the police investigation and beyond, these accounts examine not only what happened, but how detectives attempted to discover why — and whether the conclusions reached at the time still withstand scrutiny.

There are suspects who seemed certain to be guilty, clues that promised answers but produced only more questions, and mysteries that survived long after the original investigators had gone.

No invented conversations. No convenient rewriting of history. Just the people, the evidence and the questions that remained.

Open the files. Examine the evidence. Decide for yourself.
