Barriers to Entry by Ariel LawhonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Frances Glessner Lee was a real person who helped come up with and furthered the idea of modern forensic science. This short story is based on her diorama "Three Room Dwelling."
Frances is teaching a class on studying and learning from crime scenes. The goal is to take in every single detail to help solve the how and possibly the who. This portrayed the disbelief the men have about a woman teaching a class (what could *she* possibly know that *we* don't?!). Then the excitement as they (slowly) got it. And the (grudging) respect that she slowly earned. Fascinating.
