The book focusses on a criminalogist who intentionally flubs data and evidence to ensure convictions of "bad" people. For the sake of the novel and catching him, he eventually flips out and starts killing people. Lucky him that HE is the one investigating the evidence!
The book itself was great as I read the first 75 pages and was following three very interesting yet seemingly unrelated storylines, but through well done pacing and timing, they all melded together nicely and appropriately.
Proof Positive raised an interesting question for me... and after the proliferation of such shows as CSI, how much stock/reliability can we place in these types of people? Also, what happens when we put as much credibility into them as we do and they "go bad?" How can we ever trust one again?
Seriously.
For a good quick read that should take you no more than a few days, I really recommend Proof Positive. It will distract you and get you thinking.
