With a characteristic combination of humor and professionalism, the authors of Honolulu Homicide, Gary A. Dias and Robbie Dingeman, describe the riveting science and art of criminal investigation, as applied to actual crimes in Honolulu. Chapters on crime scenes, fingerprints and other evidence, blood, firearms, arson and explosives, documents, injuries and autopsies, and forensic tools and profiling include experiments readers can try at home. A bonus section, "Protect Yourself in a Dangerous World" offers expert advice on protecting your home, being safe on the streets and at work, and preventing sexual assault.
