Summary/Abstract Scene of the Crime provides an exciting opportunity to step into the shoes of a detective. The story begins with a piece of evidence - a diary of one of the suspects. Amanda is a teenage girl who talks about her friends, their new mobile phones and their lives at school. So why is she a suspect? Could she, or one of her friends, have murdered the man the police have found dead in the railway yard? What's the truth behind the murder? Through forensic evidence, CCTV footage, maps and interviews, the reader has to unravel the story, checking their findings at checkpoints throughout the book with the Crime File - a booklet containing the investigating team's notes on the crime. With all the checkpoints covered, the reader finally tracks down the killer. This is a brilliant forensic science book and a fantastic whodunnit.
