I read True Detectives as research. My research reading methodology is different from my pleasure reading methodology and True Detectives made the leap back and forth several times. The book is a series of anecdotes about real world, real life detectives, how they operate, what they do, how they do what they do and so on. I'm sure the technologies described are way out of date and the actual mechanics of investigation probably aren't as people (for the last 5-15,000 years of recorded history, anyway) haven't changed much.
True Detectives is a good read for authors doing research and for people who enjoy forensics, criminal/crime/thrillers and the like.
