The Detectives Who Wouldn't Quit
True Crime Stories of Cold Cases Cracked Decades Later - and the Investigators Who Never Gave Up (Volume 1)By Colin Ashdown
Length6h 21m
About this audiobook
Some cases go quiet for decades. Then a stored swab is tested again, a family tree points to a name, or a detective rereads an old file and sees what everyone missed. This book tells twelve true stories of cold cases that were finally closed, and of the investigators and families who refused to let them go. Each case chapter follows the case from the crime to the breakthrough to the courtroom, with the forensic science explained in plain language and without graphic detail. For true crime readers who want justice, method and persistence at the heart of the story.
