  What motivates the citizen sleuth? What causes ordinary, yet highly perceptive and heroic private citizens to solve detective cases and respond to crime? In Investigating Evil (Peter Lang), Walter explores four different typical “bad guys” that these sleuths respond to. He offers a fascinating look at these characters and their dedication to upholding a just and moral society, bringing a new lens to the murder mystery and crime genre.
