Visit the crime scene and gather clues to solve the mystery, from collecting fingerprints and swabbing DNA to analysing soil samples and digital evidence. Look back on cases through history and use activities and practical at-home experiments to test your hypotheses and find out whodunnit. Move over Holmes family, there's a new detective on the case!
At the back of the book, take a quiz to test your knowledge and read an interview with a real-life forensic scientist and DNA expert.
