DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this companion to her best-selling books , Carr presents five exciting new mysteries for student detectives to tackle. Students will sharpen their sleuthing skills after completing the course designed for great detectives at the Private Eye School, before moving on to tackle mysteries such as “The Vandal Strikes” and “The Great Electric Train Robbery.” Along the way, students will learn to analyze bloodstains and lip prints, while decoding messages and solving challenging puzzles. Each of these mysteries requires students to think outside of the box, organize data, take notes, make inferences, and use deductive reasoning skills. The mysteries include a teacher's guide and attractive reproducible pages for students to use in their investigations. The Private Eye School also provides directions for creating a classroom learning center, in which students write their own mysteries, create logic puzzles, and sketch crime scenes. Grades 4-8

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA cornucopia of the best new whodunits, collected by one of the mystery scene’s eminent editors, “a giant of the genre” (Lee Childs). One of the best mystery books of the 21st century, this volume features outstanding new stories of crime, derring-do, fast-paced adventures, and puzzles, featuring hardy amateur detectives ranging from young to old and grizzled private eyes whose patches cover the city streets, all in the hallowed tradition of Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot, and Philip Marlowe. Jakubowski’s many anthologies, like The Book of Extraordinary Historical Mystery Stories, have attracted plenty of attention and awards. His newest collection, The Book of Extraordinary Amateur Sleuths and Private Eye Stories, features never-before-seen short fiction by some of the most renowned American and British crime and thriller authors of today. Whether the victim was done in at the party uptown or discovered in the other room of a particularly difficult woman or man, these mysteries will have you reading at the edge of your seat. Praise for Maxim Jakubowski and His Books “I have been a fan of Maxim Jakubowski for years. There just is no finer mystery writer and editor anywhere. Find a comfortable chair and a strong drink and prepare to be enthralled.” —Alexander Algren, author of Out in a Flash: Murder Mystery Flash Fiction “Maxim Jakubowski is deeply experienced in the field . . . Sometimes a brief zap of great writing is just what you’re in the mood for or have time for. That’s when anthologies like his are ideal . . . intellectually outstanding.” —New York Journal of Books

DOWNLOAD EBOOK* So you want to be a private investigator?* Little or no law enforcement or related experience?* Sick of sending resumes and calling companies only to hear 'no'?* Want to start your own business?* Want to know what it's really like being a P.I.? A few years ago I was in exactly the same position. Find out how I went from a standard corporate marketing job, to fulfilling my dream of becoming a private investigator - with almost no experience. From spreadsheets and office politics to stakeouts and car tailing. If you're in this position then this is the place to start. This book explains the exact steps I took to make it as a P.I. It's a combination of my own experiences, as well as the 20 plus books and countless articles I read during the process. Relevant for the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. It is the definitive guide. Find out: * The top 3 mistakes people make when looking for a job as a P.I.* How to provide value to an organization, even without investigative experience* A day in the life of a private investigator - truth and fiction* 14 typical cases you may be involved in* Reviews and links to dozens of books, articles and websites for further information This is not about the tools and techniques of a private investigator (e.g. surveillance, tailing, tracing, interviewing etc.), there are many other books and online resources for this. It is not a manual for the job itself; it is a guide on how to get into the industry in the first place. It is specifically for people with little or no experience who want to break into the exciting world of private investigation. Having read this book you'll come away knowing the first steps you need to take, some further reading or resources, or maybe you'll realize that private investigation is not really for you. Either way, this book can save you months of frustration sending out resumes and facing rejection after rejection. No more going round in circles. Don't waste any more time. Before doing anything else, start with this book.
