Publisher's Synopsis

What evidence led investigators to Ted Bundy, America’s most infamous serial killer? How was the mystery of Anna Anderson, who claimed to be Anastasia, daughter of Czar Nicholas and Alexandra, solved after decades of speculation? How did authorities prove the notorious Hitler Diaries were a fraud? Discover the surprising answers in The Casebook of Forensic Detection, an enthralling account of one hundred groundbreaking real–life cases whose riddles were ultimately solved by scientific research. More than two centuries of technology and development come to vivid life as everything from handwriting analysis and voice–prints to ballistics, DNA testing, and psychological profiles reveal whodunit (and, in some startling cases, who didn’t do it).
