Readers are moreover offered insights into the impacts and concerns that ensue from working on the shoulders of an actual crime case, and how such conditions can affect the ethical choices that need to be made with a series such as this one.

True Crime Investigation is for everyone who loves series on a professional or private basis. It is, however, extra relevant to screenwriters or those involved in serial productions. It brings out knowledge from the production study on which it is based and formulates that knowledge into suggestions for best practices and concrete exercises. The suggestions are all relevant to serial drama development in general and true crime specifically.
