American Sherlock: Murder, Forensics, and the Birth of American CSI by Kate Winkler Dawson is a true-crime book about Edward Oscar Heinrich, one of America's first forensic scientists, who was known as the "American Sherlock Holmes". The book chronicles his life and pioneering work in the 1920s and 1930s, detailing how he developed and used techniques like blood spatter analysis, ballistics, and lie-detector tests to solve thousands of cases, laying the groundwork for modern CSI. Dawson uses Heinrich's extensive archives to explore his brilliant but flawed character and the development of forensic science in the American legal system.
