Forensic Science, David Malocco, 129 pages
This is a non-fiction book describing the work of forensic scientists and the law enforcement officers they support.  While it covers a wide range of topics I feel it is meant for someone with little knowledge of any forensic science.  Think of it more as an in-dept dictionary.  A few things one could take away from this book is first, never talk to the police, you have no obligation to say anything at any time if accused of a crime. Second, if you do have a desire to plan the perfect crime, be sure it's against a stranger, in a far away location and you can establish a strong a alibi (go to a convention, rent a movie at your hotel during the time the crime takes place).   Over all a surprisingly small number of crimes are solved, contrary to what we see on TV.
