I studied all the B&P codes, etc., recommended by the licensing board to prep for the exam as well. I found this book gave a great overall view of the P.I. business and its legal considerations. It mentioned the types of agencies and specific agency names where you would be gathering ...             The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot (The Three Investigators No. 2)12 reviews Robert Arthur Random House Books for Young Readers, 1991 The Parrot Stutters!

Pete Crenshaw is typically the muscle of ...             The Secret of Terror Castle (The Three Investigators)60 reviews Robert Arthur Armada, 1992 Great read! I read this book to my 10 year old son and we both loved it.

I was always trying to find the next case that the boys would be solving. I am buying these books for my 9 year old son so that he can enjoy them as much as I did.

Griffin Jove, 1998 Great Book Wonderful book. You can't go wrong with this series or this book for sure. It will take you on a ride that you will not want to see end for Matt Payne.

The unfortunate backdrop is the astounding scale of international wildlife and animal parts trafficking. This book highlights one aspect of combating this complex ...             Advice for a Young Investigator (Bradford Books)18 reviews Santiago Ramon y Cajal The MIT Press, 2004 remarkably relavent many years after published.

Helm does a really great job of explaining the child-directed nature of the Project Approach. She shows how to make the process come alive inside as well as outside of the classroom. I would recommend this to instructors as a text for students in an Early Chilhood Curricula or a Methods and Materials class. Students really ...             The Private Investigator Handbook: The Do-It-Yourself Guide to Protect Yourself, Get Justice, or Get Even12 reviews Chuck Chambers Perigee Trade, 2005 Best of the Books This book wins hands down between 'The Idiot's Guide to Private Investigation'.

This book is a must!             The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy (Three Investigators #3)14 reviews Robert Arthur Random House Books for Young Readers, 1985 Speak to me Mummy! Quite a few children's mystery book series have become classics. Most people are familiar with Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, and Tom Swift. Even the Boxcar Children are relatively well-known. However, Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators were well-written books that offered an intelligent, interesting and more contemporary alternative to many of the earlier classic series. Many people ...             The Investigator's Little Black Book 315 reviews Robert Scott Crime Time Publishing Company, 2002 Tton of information Almost an overwhelming amount of information, It would have been a good idea to have put the info into sections of different types of info or at least have an index. Ther than that it is a very informative book, you just have to really hunt for the info you are really after.             Profilers: Leading Investigators Take You Inside The Criminal Mind5 reviews Prometheus Books, 2004 Best read on Profiling Criminal psychology and profiling are my areas of biggest interest in the realm of true crime. As I have a library of over 50 books on this and related topics I certainly feel qualified to write reviews on these books. This book is devided into two parts. The first is a collection eleven odd articles from various bulletins and law enforcement magazines.

All the place and ...             Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator23 reviews Jennifer Allison Puffin, 2006 Sparkling writing! Very entertaining & a fun read. The author did a great job with evoking scene & character details in the relatively short & fast-paced books in this series. The characters in this series have been given a lot of detail and some have eccentricities, however, I thought the writing and the characterizations were humorous, interesting, & intelligent instead of ridiculous, pretentious, and inane. ...             The Mystery of the Moaning Cave (Three Investigators Classics #10)5 reviews William Arden Random House Books for Young Readers, 1991 Another Neat Story in the Series!
