Riassunto:

"The Crime Writers Guide to Police Practice and Procedure" is the detective in your pocket - something you can reach for when you feel your writing needs that short sharp shock of real-life investigating. Every crime writer has paused at some key point in the development of their book to wonder about what happens in real life. How far from that can they safely go for the sake of the plot and still be believable? How does a cop react to a bloated body, or even worse a part of one? This well-crafted book has been written with this in mind. It can be what you want it to be; a handy reference book - how can I use low count DNA to identify the killer? - or a textbook to guide you at the outset whilst you are still developing your plot, leaving you confident that you have covered all the angles.

L'autore: Michael O'Byrne started his police career in the sixties, aged 19, in the Royal Hong Kong Police, serving there through Mao's cultural revolution. He then moved to the Metropolitan Police, working in Notting Hill, the West End and New Scotland Yard before moving to Surrey then Thames Valley, ending his police career as chief constable in Bedfordshire.
