A crime has been committed in the art museum and the Science Detective Agency are on the case. To be a detective you need an agile mind . Train your brain to tackle the most intriguing mysteries and crack the case wide open. Do you think you've got what it takes? The Science Detective Agency is back to introduce more curious detectives-in-training aged 8+ to the world of forensic science. Visit the crime scene and gather clues to solve the mystery, from collecting fingerprints and swabbing DNA to analysing brushstrokes and pigments. Look back on famous art forgeries through history and use activities and practical at-home experiments to test your hypotheses and find out whodunnit. Move over Holmes family, there's a new detective on the case! At the back of the book, take a quiz to test your knowledge and read an interview with a real-life art scientist working at the V&A Museum.
