This is a biography of Frances Glessner Lee. She brought about the more modern era of forensics, and some of her techniques are still used today. Her ambition in this field in a time when women being in this field was non-existent. She had to fight everyone for everything she got and got to do. She is best known for her little dioramas that depicted violent deaths, as they called homicides than, and using these dioramas to teach crime scene investigation to police officers.
This was a very interesting book it took me right back to my crime scene investigation class, where we still did crime scene mock ups. This book was well written and come at a time when woman are finally being credited with all the things they actually did back when it wasn't spoken of. It was a really good non-fiction book.
