The Murder Room, Michael Capuzzo

I've heard loads of really good reviews for this. Before we go any further this is non fiction - what we classify as true crime. It is about the formation of the Vidocq Society a group of real life crime solvers - they come from every agency and country you can think of and they are the top experts in their field. They meet with one aim - to solve cases that have gone 'cold'. I'm still in the first part of the book - how three men brought the whole thing together. Fleischer, Bender and Walter are complete opposites but together they are formidable. So is this book. Michael Capuzzo's book reads like fiction - never dry, always compelling and the only reason I put it down last night was that little thing called sleep.
