About this Article

Elgin private investigator Edward Herdrich says the highs and lows of his profession range from helping reunite long-lost siblings to the heartbreaking task of telling a mother her son had just died of an illness. Herdrich this fall will be teaching private investigation classes at Elgin Community College, Harper College and McHenry County College. "I love the puzzle. Even in the cases that didn't have an outcome that I wanted, I still enjoyed working on them."
