In my opinion, Hess' CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION has always been the most comprehensive textbook for criminal investigation. It provides all the basics associated with any criminal investigation and then provides detailed, in-depth explanation of the evidence and procedures involved in the investigation of specific crimes. This book is very well designed and I really applaud the authors for their excellent research, concise writing, identification of terms, and issues highlighted in boxes.
