5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource book for anyone interested in criminology
Reviewed in Australia on 14 December 2015
A gritty and powerful compilation of a variety of famous cases. Full of facts and details, this would be a great resource book for anyone interested in criminology, true crime or even fiction writers. A few of the cases were well known to me already, however, some weren't. This book helped fill in the blanks. Highly recommend it!

I loved this book. Though I already knew many of its stories, as I had watched most of Discovery Channel "Fbi Files" episodes. But it had some details that I was not aware of. I recommend. Easy reading.

-- Libro sin pretensiones, da la impresión de haber sido extraído de recortes periodísticos, en definitiva de poco calado, las historias las encontrará perfectamente en la red, no obstante por el precio merece la pena.

5.0 out of 5 stars The FBI's Greatest Hits
Reviewed in the United States on 18 April 2012
Verified Purchase
Top Cases of the FBI by RJ Parker is a compendium of many of the cases that made the FBI's reputation. It stretches from the early days of John Dillinger and Al Capone, up through the Unabomber and the Washington DC Beltway snipers. The info, and there's a lot of it, keeps coming at you like the FBI's Greatest Hits, if I'm not being too glib about a serious subject.

Most of the cases discussed are things I'm familiar with to one degree or another. But there's a lot of detail that I didn't know. And one case, The 1986 Miami Shootout, is something I just didn't remember at all. So it was interesting to read about that one, which reminded me a little of the Los Angeles North Hollywood Shootout in its intensity, number of rounds fired and, unfortunately, the number of people killed or wounded.

I think my favorite line in the book was about the Jim Jones Jonestown Massacre: "Obviously, Jim Jones wanted his cult to be a one way street. Like the song Hotel California, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave." So true.

A great read and great resource for writers who write about crime, whether fiction or non-fiction and those who are just interested in true crime.

1.0 out of 5 stars Simple Zusammenfassung bekanntester FBI-Fälle
Reviewed in Germany on 18 April 2012

Der Autor fasst die bekanntesten Fälle des FBI in kurzen Berichten zusammen, wobei er anscheinend ihm vorliegende Zeitungs- und andere Medienberichte aufgearbeitet hat, um diese komprimiert niederzuschreiben.
Hintergrundinformationen oder Analysen sucht der Leser hier vergeblich. Auch ist der Schreibstil weder spannend noch fesselnd.
Deutlich mehr Informationen erhält, wer bei wikipedia über die einzelnen Fälle nachliest und dann den in den wiki-Artikeln verlinkten Seiten folgt.
Alles in allem keine journalistische Glanzleistung, sondern eine Arbeit, die jeder, der halbwegs Schriftstellerambitionen besitzt, locker erledigt.
Auch der niedrige Preis entschädigt nicht, ich rate von einem Kauf ab.
