A great collection of CSI short stories which put many a new twist on old themes. Good cuddle up under the covers read for this winter.

This review is from: At the Scene of the Crime: Forensic Mysteries from Today's Best Writers (Paperback)

Got this book because it was listed as NON-fiction; that was a fiction! Stories don't ring true, and weren't interesting either. Further, though its supposed to be an anthology, seems like they all read the same.
