About the Book

This book will prove indispensable to those not in this position, who wish to bring authenticity and realism to the lead detective and senior investigators in their writing.
Inside you will find details of what exactly a lead investigator and Senior Investigating Officer is, how they become one, what training they undertake and what 38 qualities and expectations they are expected to exhibit. You will also find 27 specific ideas of how to take your stories forward and/or create conflict in them. There are also hyperlinks to 79 websites or documents that you may find useful in building up your understanding of what a Senior Investigating Officer needs to know and apply during a major investigation. All of this invaluable information can't help but allow you to create a convincing, believable story.
