About the Book:
It's all in the details... How to Write Realistic Crime Dramas
Crime stories have always intrigued
viewers and storytellers. Today, crime shows rule the airwaves and
there is truly a procedural drama out there for every personality –
and every writer. But the television or movie screen is the closest
most people will ever come to witnessing the forensic world. Not
Jennifer Dornbush – she actually lived it. As a daughter of
a medical examiner, whose office was in her home, she investigated
her first fatality, an airplane crash, when she was 8 years-old.
Since that first case she has had decades of on-sight experience in
death investigation and 360 hours of forensic training through the
Forensic Science Academy.
Forensics finally explained in lay people's terms. Born out of her real-life experiences,
Forensic Speak unlocks the secrets of forensic science for
writers and fans alike by taking you behind the crime tape, lab
doors, and into the morgue, to learn how things are really handled.
Over 300+ forensic
terms. A filmography of 100 film and TV examples and 80 additional
resources. Forensic Speak provides writers direct access to
hundreds of ways to make your crime writing more authentic.
