Imagine a new kind of book in which you are the main character, investigating true crime cases. True Crime in Real Time is a unique approach to true crime investigations.
True Crime in Real Time introduces a new paradigm to true crime, putting the reader in place of investigators on real true crime cases.
TCRT reimages true crime with You as a fictional detective walking the crime scenes, recovering evidence, and solving contemporary AND Historical cases, from Peterson, OJ, and Ramsey, to Borden, Sheppard, and Lindbergh.
TCRT poses several challenges. Puzzle out the real case within the fictional presentation and assess any alternate theory presented during the detective’s collaboration at the conclusion of each case. It is a reading feast for true crime enthusiasts and lovers of nonfiction novels.
