I remember watching many of the episodes the crimes were based on. This is a great book, especially for those interested in true crimes, but anyone will find them fascinating. The authors have truly done their research and are to be commended. (  ) GeniusJen | Oct 14, 2009 |  ) r0ckcandy | Apr 9, 2009 | nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Part of the reason millions of fans tune in to Law & Order is the gritty realism of its storytelling. The monumentally popular show has included many episodes inspired by actual cases ripped from the headlines. Here are the fascinating and shocking facts behind 25 of the hit show's most popular episodes--and, just as in the television drama, the actual crime is just the beginning, as you follow these cases from the initial stages of the investigation through the trial and up to the often controversial verdicts.--From publisher description.

A non-fiction book that looks into the cases that inspired episodes from Law and Order.
Rating:
4/5
I really enjoyed the set-up of this book. At the beginning of each section there is a note about the law and order episode inspired by the real life crime and then the book goes into what actually happened. There are also little notes in certain chapters about a certain thing that was said or done in the show versus real life police procedure or law.
As a Law and Order fan I was fascinated to see the true crimes that inspired episodes from the series (many of which I have seen).
The book was well written and the stories were intriguing. I was engaged and hungry for more.
There are pictures in this book but nothing graphic or gory. Mostly pictures of the victims pre-crime or photos/mug shots of the person who was eventually convicted of the crime.
I think if you like true crime books and Law and Order the television series this book will be right up your alley. There is another book specifically for Law and Order SVU which I haven't read yet but would be excited to try as well. (
