RAGNARS GUIDE TO INTERVIEWS, INVESTIGATIONS, AND INTERROGATIONS
How to Conduct Them, How to Survive Them
by Ragnar Benson

In his first book on the subject of investigations, Ragnar, who has 25 years of experience in the PI business, offers readers two books in one. He reveals how PIs, cops and military investigators conduct interviews, investigations and interrogations, andhe also shows prospective witnesses how to survive them.

For investigators, he shares his professional secrets and real-life scenarios for creating effective pretexts for any situation, opening up a witness and keeping him talking, recognizing and “listening” to nonverbal clues, and deciding whether to use honey or vinegar to get the desired results. Then Ragnar turns the tables on his fellow investigators and gives potential witnesses specific tips for avoiding – or at least surviving – the tactics, techniques and tricks favored by skilled investigators. Whether you want to be an investigator or avoid one, you won’t want to miss this book. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, softcover, photos, 120 pp.
