◆ Death in the Desert: A girl walking to high school in Las Vegas was found dead after being viciously sexually assaulted. The case went cold for thirty two years until a local philanthropist donated $5,000 to a company specializing in DNA genomics - stipulating that it be used on a cold case. Soon, not one, but two murders were solved.
◆ A Nun Killer: In 1981 an elderly nun was murdered in her bedroom. In 1992 a young man was executed for her murder. That much is certain. What is not certain is whether the convicted and executed man was really guilty.
◆ Just a Drifter: When a twenty-two year old woman goes missing while walking her dog it doesn’t take long for solid clues to lead to a senior citizen who is a drifter. But police can’t help wondering whether a drifter in his sixties has finally committed his first murder, or whether he’s previously committed several others.
◆ Washington Axe Murderer: A beautiful area of Seattle, popular with both locals and tourists, had its residents living in fear during the summer of 1990 as an axe murderer stalked the neighborhood and left terrifying messages inside homes.

Childish writing and horrible editing
These are short stories. The sentences are noun verb. The editing can't be explained by auto correct. The pictures are in color but if they were any fuzzier, they might qualify as pets. Nice to read cover to cover if you have 20 minutes or so as you do your laundry.

Just like the title says, these are killer case files. And they read like case files, too. I actually thought that they would read more like stories with suspense and excitement. No, it wasn’t quite like that. These read more like police reports. Very tame and formal.
These were interesting cases, sure, but I wanted more story.

These are very brief case files. The crime, who was involved and if they were caught. My only beef is the writing is a bit sloppy and editing could be better. But I wanted a quick read. It’s like watching one of those true crime tv shows. Once you start you just get sucked in.

Just finished the audiobook for Volumes 1-5 and absolutely loved these true murder stories. This is my favorite kind of horror. Highly recommend!!

I, like many people, love true crime. These 20 true crime tales from volume four run the gamut of young and old, notorious to obscure, motivated to senseless. The victims were of all backgrounds, and so were the perpetrators. I was pleased to see some famous historical serial killers such as Madame LaLaurie mixed in. The life of such a depraved and twisted woman is fascinating to me, even though she was unquestionably grotesque and abhorrent. Some of the cases are more satisfying than others and I felt like maybe they were poor candidates for print because they leave out things like motive or context. Many of the stories are lacking explanations of the investigations or forensics involved in solving the murders, and I’ve always liked having the science of case-solving be part of the story. All in all, though, it was an interesting late-night read. The stories were quick, so I flew through this volume. I definitely recommend for true crime lovers.
