True Crime Case Histories - Volume 10

<h4>12 Disturbing True Crime Stories of Murder and Mayhem</h4><h4>Volume 10 of the True Crime Case Histories Series (2022)</h4><h4>Readers Love This Series - Over 7000 Five-Star Ratings on Amazon & Goodreads</h4><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>True crime is not for everyone. But chances are if you've picked up this book you already know that. Actual true crime is not like watching an episode of CSI. Even television true crime documentaries can skim over the sticky details. Real true crime can be unsettling for many people. However I do my best not to leave out any details in my books. My intention isn't to shock but rather to give the reader a glimpse into the killer's mind. I don't begin to think that I can understand the mind of a diabolical monster but I can guarantee that curiosity will keep us turning pages and endlessly searching for answers.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Each story in my books requires hours of tedious research. I search through court records old newspaper articles police records autopsy reports and first-hand accounts. Although I may occasionally change a character's name or fictionalize bits of dialogue these crimes really happened to real people. Sadly this is the world in which we live.</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>A sampling of the stories includes:</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>A Sad Holiday Season</strong><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)> - In the north of England a sixteen-year-old girl disappeared after Christmas shopping with her friend.
