What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The central topic is crime, but it is handled in a completely sanitized, technical, and puzzle-oriented manner. The book focuses on the 'how' of solving a case, not the emotional or violent aspects of criminal acts. The approach is secular and practical. The resolution implied in every section is hopeful: with cleverness and science, mysteries can be solved and justice can be served.
