'A model of smart storytelling and pure inspiration' Stephen J.

The result is this fascinating collection of innovative and imaginative approaches to crime prevention, showing us that any problem can be solved if we just identify its underlying roots. You'll come to appreciate the advantages of sticking gum on celebrities' faces and why the colour of your football kit might win you the match.
