M. William Phelps

True stories from the files of an award-winning journalist and New York Times–bestselling author: “One of America’s finest true-crime writers” (Vincent Bugliosi).

Someone tries to pin a gruesome murder on a horse. Infamous serial killer Son of Sam shows us his true evil nature in a series of lost letters this psychopath never wanted you to see. Sesame Street’s Big Bird comes home to find a dead woman on his estate. These shocking stories and several others are collected in one volume for the first time, with added updates from the author.

One story involves a young man who believes he’s figured out the perfect way to commit a murder after binge-watching Forensic Files. In this opening tale, a Massachusetts man is stalked by a hired killer because of the information he holds in the case of insurance scam gone bad, resulting in savage murder. Next up is the story of a restaurant owner and her husband, enjoying a tranquil life in the Berkshires, until a bloody trail inside a barn leads to a gruesome discovery and a family’s deepest, darkest secrets are exposed.

As a bonus, Phelps takes readers behind the scenes of his hit Investigation Discovery series Dark Minds, revealing his investigative secrets with an intimate look at those serial-killer cold cases that still haunt Phelps today—and meets with forensic scientist Dr. Henry Lee in a narrative interview that reveals Lee’s ingenious and humorous take on life, his crime-scene philosophy, and the ways in which he deals with the brutality of the work he does.

Bogeyman by New York Times–bestselling author Steve Jackson

For years he stalked elementary schools and playgrounds looking for young girls from low-income neighborhoods to abduct, rape and murder. They were “throwaway kids” to him, hardly missed, soon forgotten, except by those who loved them. He was every parent’s worst nightmare—and it took a decades-long fight by Texas lawmen to bring him to justice.

Murder In The Familyby Edgar Award–winning author Burl Barer

A New York Times Bestseller: In 1987, Anchorage police arrived at a horrific scene of carnage. In a downtown apartment, they found Nancy Newman’s brutally beaten corpse and the bodies of her two young daughters. After an intense investigation, they identified the principal suspect: Kirby Anthoney—a troubled drifter who’d turned to his uncle, Nancy’s husband, for help and a place to stay. Little did he know that the nephew he took in was a murderous sociopath …
