Explosive : the story of Britain's leading forensic explosives scientist, who for nearly three decades investigated some of the most prominent national and international criminal bomb attacks in history

Todd, Cliff2022
Book
This is life at the front line, or fractionally behind it, of an explosive expert who played a pivotal role in the investigation of the most significant bombings in mainland Britain and elsewhere during the course of three turbulent decades. For 15 years, Cliff Todd was the principal forensic investigator at the UK's Forensic Explosives Laboratory, a clandestine agency whose role is to support the police and the security services in their investigations into bombings of any kind - whether it be the IRA, ISIS, or political extremists. Here he lifts the lid on his specialist world, guiding us through the process by which he and his colleagues worked out how bombs were built, what made them unique, and which clues led to their creators.
