NetGalley Review: 5 stars

Last updated on 25 Jul 2022

"I have always loved the show Forensic Files. I have watched them over and over throughout the years, and have enjoyed seeing different updates, looking at cases as they progress, and of course - seeing the advances in science as time progresses.

This was a great book, and I enjoyed the case updates and the notes from the author. The thoughts provided by the show's director were also really interesting. I truly enjoyed this book from start to finish.

Now, of course, I am going to sit down and watch Forensic Files for the millionth time and look to match the cases in this book again. I cannot wait!

Perhaps no other television show captures our innate fascination with crime and criminals better than the original Forensic Files. Including murders, insurance fraud, hit-and-runs, and kidnappings, all cases featured on the show are solved in large part with the help of forensic science like DNA evidence.

In Forensic Files Now: Inside 40 Unforgettable Cases, author Rebecca Reisner shares her own gripping retellings — adapted from her popular blog, ForensicFilesNow.com — of 40 favorite cases profiled on the show along with fascinating updates and personal interviews with those directly involved. Featuring classic cases like the Tennessee brothers who terrorized locals for years until the feds rode into town, the Texas lovebirds who robbed a grave in an insurance fraud plot that made international headlines, the Ivy League-educated physician who attempted a fresh start by burying his wife in the basement, and some cases so captivating that they have sparked spinoff miniseries or documentaries of their own, this book will enthrall readers with its vivid recaps and detailed updates.

Also featuring an in-depth interview with Forensic Files creator Paul Dowling and a profile on the show’s beloved narrator, Peter Thomas, Forensic Files Now is a must-read for diehard Forensic Files fans and a welcome find for true crime readers looking for more riveting and well-told stories.
