Description

Do you enjoy mysteries? Have you ever wondered how the detectives seem to always manage to catch the criminals even though there are no witnesses and hardly any clues? In this volume, we have collected sixteen famous true cases, solved by ordinary people from all walks of life. Though not trained professionally as detectives, they were still able to unravel the mysteries by noticing things that others overlook and applying good sense. The solutions to these cases hinge on details as minute as an abandoned cigarette butt or pollen grains on a pair of shoes, bicycle tracks on the ground, a kettle on the stove, and even tiny ants. Yet once the clues are put together, the answers are surprisingly simple. These tales of true cases, brought to life with expressive illustrations, are not only entertaining and interesting, they help hone our reasoning and observational skills. Also included in this volume are tips to help aspiring detectives catch criminals and solve mysteries. Let’s crack crimes together!
