Wildlife Crime: The makings of an investigations officer

Whittles Publishing has produced a number of books in recent years that get to the heart of countryside matters. This title continues that theme, looking at the problem of wildlife crime in Scotland. It is a very readable account of Dave Dick’s ‘evolution’ to Investigations Officer, against a background of the very real problem. Accounts of individual incidents bring the whole thing to life, but the sheer cruel and callous nature of the wildlife criminals will come as a shock but also help us to understand both what drives the criminals but also what drives those who are determined to stop them, even in the face of insufficient legislation.
