Samenvatting
An indispensable A-Z reference guide for fans of crime fiction and true crime, in books, TV and film, covering everything from AFIT to Zero Day.
Are you a fan of crime fiction or true crime? Do you want to understand the mechanics of an investigation? To really walk in your favourite detectives' shoes? And, most importantly, to solve the clues?
To do that, you need to be fluent in the language of the world of crime. You need to know what that world-weary DI is talking about when she refers to another MISPER. You have to immediately grasp the significance of the presence of paraquat, and precisely why it is still a poison of choice.
If you want to know how many murders it takes for a killer to be defined as a serial killer, what Phillip Marlowe means when he talks about being 'on a confidential lay' and why the 'fruit of a poisonous tree' is a legal term rather than something you should avoid on a country walk, this is the reference book you've been waiting for.
This go-to resource is not just for readers but also for writers of crime fiction. It is much more than simply a glossary; it provides a doorway into a supergenre that spans film and TV, crime podcasts and blogs as well as books.
