Sinopsis

It has always struck me as odd to have a police unit called The Serious Crime Squad. All crime is serious by definition. I know what they mean by ?Serious Crime: murder, rape, bank robbery, for example.?Serious? is defined as:1. Demanding or characterised by careful consideration or application.2. Acting or speaking sincerely and in earnest, rather than in a joking or half-hearted manner.You could apply that definition to investigating any crime. So, I have flipped it on its head - the opposite of serious is ?frivolous?. ?Frivolous? is defined as:Not having any serious purpose or value.I have invented crimes that the Serious Crime Squad would not touch:1. Stealing collection money from a church.2. Wheelie bin fire.3. Theft of five pairs of very expensive knickers.It follows therefore, that these crimes are frivolous, hence the name of the book!
