When I was a boy, I had these three detective books. There may be more than three, but I had three. They were about paperback size, though in a hard blue cover. They were full colour too, sort of a comic book style illustration.
These books may of been with a British publisher, as I had purchased them in London. This would of been AT LEAST 14 years ago. So the books may of been new, but they may of been old too. But certainly before 1992-3.
These weren't actual detective stories, but rather, how to be a detective or private investigator. They had examples of how to set up your office and how to remember descriptions, look for clues, etc. All the illustrations of the detectives had them wearing trench coats, but there were a variety of illustrations used.
I've been looking for these for years. I can't remember the title or the author. For all I know, they are different authors but the same illustrator. I'd really like to find these books, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
