Episode description

Suggest a book for the podcast or say hello!

Step back in time and explore the fascinating world of forensic investigation during the Golden Age of detective fiction. 

I’ll dive into the real-life CSI methods used by detectives in the 1920s and how they compare to the techniques employed by fictional sleuths like Sherlock Holmes.

I’ll also take a closer look at a true crime case from 1923 that led to the creation of the iconic "murder bag” 💼 - a precursor to the modern crime scene investigation kit.
