The Blackstone's Police Investigators' Manual and Workbook 2008 are the only official study texts for the National Investigators' Exam (NIE) which is taken as part of Phase 1 of the Initial Crime Investigators' Development Programme.

Based on the bestselling Blackstone's Police Manuals, this pack provides legal information which is relevant to the role of a trainee investigator, namely in the areas of Property Offences, Assaults, Drugs, Firearms & Defences, Sexual Offences, Offences Against Children and Evidence. The Workbook takes the trainee investigator through each of the examination topics and includes a variety of exercises, case studies, examples and A-type multiple-choice questions plus useful cross references to the Manual in the answers section.
