Never Suck a Dead Man's Hand: Curious Adventures of a CSI

If you think this book is like the CSI you watch on TV, you might be very disappointed. This book is a memoir of Dana Kollman's (the author) experience as a CSI.

The real CSI, don't wear expensive business suits, anyway it's not a good idea to wear an expensive business suit or high heels when you'll be stepping on brain matter, digging a forgotten grave site. Yeah, and this book can get very graphic and funny. It was an eye opener for me as I don't really watch CSI but I watch Fringe, does that count?

The way she recounts the stories makes it comes alive as if you went for a "ride along" with her. In a nutshell, this is the real deal of being a CSI, so if you ever consider being a CSI or just being curious about what a CSI really do, read this book.

I picked up this book because of the book title and the interesting cover of a lollipop with flies.

Happy Chinese New Year!
