Researchers:

We have a strong team of researchers who help us find records among our own internal resources as well as archives in and around the London area.


Investigators:

In addition to the team based at our head office in London, we also run a team of investigators who cover the British Isles. Their identities remain confidential as many of them were involved in high profile cases during their careers in the police force. Their contribution is critical to us solving many of our more challenging cases.
