In today's world, crime scene investigation is one of the topics both adults and teens find most fascinating. Countless television shows and novels are inspired by forensic investigations' new scientific techniques. Meanwhile, forensic science is one of the fastest growing career fields in North America; and colleges, high schools, middle schools, and even elementary schools are adding forensic science classes to their curriculum. What's more, educational researchers credit forensic studies with helping students do better in other subject areas as well; "We find that it teaches research skills, analytic thought patterns, persistence and patience, and self-confidence," a Harvard professor told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal.
This new series uses both fact and fiction to introduce teens to the exciting world of forensic investigation. Readers of every ability level will be drawn into the suspenseful stories with their believable cast of characters, while the nonfiction portion at the end of each volume increases readers' vocabularies, expands their understanding of the science behind crime scene investigation, and deepens their understanding of the cultural and social issues involved in the world of crime solving. "Graphic novel" illustrations add to the stories' excitement and appeal, while color photographs clearly illustrate the concepts discussed in the nonfiction text
