Rigspolitichefens Rejseafdeling – populært kaldet Rejseholdet – var en berømt og respekteret enhed, som rykkede ud som assistance til politikredsene uden for København i sager af særlig karakter. Rejseholdet blev dannet i 1927 og nedlagt i 2002. Her fortælles for første gang hele den dramatiske historie om, hvordan en række uopklarede brandsager fra det 20. århundredes begyndelse førte til oprettelsen af et særligt korps i politiet, som fra 1927 i en selvstændig afdeling rykkede ud i sædelighedssager, mord, store bedrageri- og tyverisager samt røveri- og siden narkotikasager. Bogen bygger på Politimuseets udførlige materiale om Rejseholdets arbejde samt på interviews med nøglepersoner, bl.a. tidligere ansatte i afdelingen, herunder chefer, tidligere rigspolitichef, tidligere statsadvokat og forsvarsadvokater.
