This guide for fans of crime fiction and non-fiction organizes more than 600 titles into separate categories of professional criminals, criminal detectives, and getting "caught up in crime." Niebuhr, an author and public library director in Wisconsin, provides plot summaries, publication information and brief subject cross-references such as kidnapping, organized crime and geographical locations. The "caught up in crime" section further separates titles into themes of white-collar crime, serial killers, rogues, victims, and "cops gone bad."
