A review by teachinsci
Double Dealer by Max Allan Collins
4.0
I noticed some reviews panned this book for not going into the characters personal lives and personalities... those reviewers must not get that this is NOT a book that can be separated from the TV show it was based on.
That being said, this WAS a good literary episode of that series. I am a big fan of CSI (especially the first seasons), and this book captures the flavor of those first season episodes, in some ways it does even better because the book can span more time and give attention to some of the forensic details that the TV show must skip. I especially liked that the author obviously did research and found out what really is and is not possible in forensic science.
