The Hunt for H. H. Holmes and Trial of America's First Serial Killer

by Ben Hammott, Frank Geyer

The hunt for H. H. Homes (Real Name is Herman Webster Mudgett) by Detective Frank Geyer is a fascinating read. With hardly any clues to help him, except for Holmes first confession, which Geyer believed was mostly lies, and the Pitezel's children's letters to their mother, Geyer sets off on a hunt across America on the trail of the missing children.
If it was not for Geyer's unrelenting persistence, the outcome he achieved would never have been reached.
Though it reads like a work of fiction, the Holmes murder case is real and will be enjoyed by anyone who likes a good murder mystery or detective story.
