The Truth in True Crime: What Investigating Death Teaches Us About the Meaning of Life

Explore fifteen life-truths gleaned from both contemporary murder investigations and ancient biblical wisdom.

"Every murder investigation teaches two lessons: a death lesson and a life lesson."

For decades, cold-case homicide detective J. Warner Wallace investigated the causes behind deaths and murders, chasing one lead after another as he attempted to solve the case. Several of these cases remain open, unsolved mysteries. . .

But even those that haven't yet revealed the identity of the killer do expose the truths of human nature: what's important to us, what threatens our well-being, and what causes us to flourish.

Join Wallace as he investigates life lessons he learned as a detective, so that you can:

• Better understand your own identity and the identity of your Creator.
• Rethink the nature of death so you can live a better life.
• Uncover life-truths gleaned from both contemporary murder investigations and ancient biblical wisdom.
• Discover profound attributes of human beings that will guide you down the path of true self-discovery.

Each chapter introduces you to an investigation of a death as Wallace and his partner Rick chase down leads and along the way learn guiding principles to help you thrive and flourish as a human being created in the image of God.
