As a private investigator, I immerse myself in industry-related books, articles, webinars, blogs, podcasts, and pretty much anything I can get my hands on. Before I opened my PI business, I spent about a year searching for the most useful resources I could find. Here are some of my absolute favorites that you should consider:
