In this gripping book, journalist Simon Reed draws on rich archive material and real-life crime stories to uncover two centuries of Scotland Yard.

Perhaps the most famous police force in the world, it features in the stories of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, but its role extends far beyond the pages of detective novels. Over the course of its long history, Scotland Yard officers have investigated many incredible cases, from the crimes of child killers and highwaymen to the bloody crimes of Jack the Ripper.

You will learn how police standards were established and advanced forensic techniques such as fingerprinting and psychological profiling were introduced.
