Résumé
By using Sherlock Holmes stories as her starting point, forensics expert Wagner blends familiar examples from Doyle's accounts into a history of the growth of forensic science, pointing out where fiction strayed from fact. She also weaves in true crime… cases that either influenced Holmes's creator or may have been influenced by a published story from the Baker Street sleuth. Some descriptions of sex and explicit descriptions of violence. 2006.
