Product Description

Every crime scene tells a story. But it's not always the obvious one, and teasing out the final proof from the evidence left behind is a formidable and fascinating task. For veteran forensic investigator Gil Grisson and his team, no crime scene is straightforward and no case is ever cut and dried. Using all their scientific skills, with the very latest in cutting-edge technology - plus a healthy dose of instinct, experience and good old-fashioned intuition - they leave no stone unturned in unravelling the truth. When a man is found bound, gagged and strangled in his own home, Las Vegas Police Captain Jim Brass recognises the MO as that of a serial killer from fifteen years ago who was never caught. But with plenty of other suspects and motives to go around, it will take all of the CSI team's combined abilities to finally lay the ghosts of the past to rest.

Customer Reviews

Fantastic.. One of the best plots!
I've read almost all of the CSI books as well as watching the programme but when i read this book i was absolutley amazed at the plot. This book is great from the beginning, although compared to other books starts a little slower. However this is a good thing as it helps you get more into what's going on and where the plots coming from and leading to. Anyway there are many ups and downs in the investigation but by the end you're mezmerized by who the killer is as well as why the killer has left his sick signature at each of his crimes. A fantastic read!

Newest CSI Book
I don't know how to describe this book other than amazing. I read most of this book in one day. Once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. If you have watched the program and enjoyed it this book is for you. When you read the character dialogue you can imagine the actual cast saying it. The story is very good. It doesn't give to much away during the story just like in the show, till you get to the end and it turns out to be someone you didn't expect to have committed the crime. I you like the show and don't know what book to read first I highly recommend this one, as that's the first CSI book I read and enjoyed. I expect more CSI books to be bought in the year by me.

CSI - Blinding
I bought this book, and from starting to read it couldn't put it down. You could clearly identify with all the characters - it was so like the tv series & for me that was a good thing, and the story was great always keeping you wondering will they get their man (...). I even gave the book to my mum who is also an avid fan of csi & she read it within 2 days.
I am now going to buy another one
