Murder

Three books. Thirty-six cases. The killers here held down jobs, coached little league, and paid their taxes on time—until the ordinary turned lethal.

Detective Chief Inspector Colin Sutton and his murder squad as they investigate one of Britain's most notorious serial killers, Levi Bellfield.

"There are no female serial killers." An FBI profiler told a room full of police exactly that in 1998, while a nurse stood trial for murdering the veterans in her care. That myth is the deadliest weapon a killer ever carried. This book takes it apart. Female serial killers don't stalk strangers down dark alleys. They marry you. They nurse you. They bring you soup, sign the death certificate, and weep at your funeral. They favour poison over pursuit, kill the people who trust them most, and stay free twice as long as any man, because nobody looks twice at the sweet lady plumping the pillow.

In October 2009, more than fifty people attended a $10,000-per-person wellness retreat led by a celebrity self-help guru. For these enlightenment seekers, their time in Sedona, Arizona, culminated in a fake Native American sweat lodge ceremony. Three of them would not make it out alive. This tragedy exposes the dangerous truth about the booming $2 trillion wellness industry where promises of spiritual awakening and financial success often mask dangerous practices underpinned by cultural appropriation and commodification of nature.

The people in these twelve cases didn't see it coming. A husband walking the dog at dawn. A boy sent away to be saved. A man opening a package addressed to him by name. Each trusted something ordinary, and each was destroyed by it.

What if the most infamous murder case of the 1960s was never as simple as America was told? In August 1969, a series of brutal murders shocked Los Angeles and turned Charles Manson into one of the darkest names in American crime. The victims were real people with real lives: Sharon Tate, Jay Sebring, Abigail Folger, Wojciech Frykowski, Steven Parent, Leno LaBianca, Rosemary LaBianca, Gary Hinman, and others caught in the violent orbit of the Manson Family. But the story that followed became something larger than murder. It became a courtroom drama. A Hollywood nightmare. A cult case.

They were trusted with lives. Some used that trust to kill. Behind the clean white coats, polished hospital floors, and quiet patient rooms, some of history’s most disturbing killers hid in plain sight. They were doctors, nurses, caregivers, poisoners, and medical professionals who understood one terrifying truth: in hospitals and nursing homes, death can look natural long enough for murder to continue.

They have a name for it–serial murder. They have a map–the first thirty-five cases fell along one stretch of Interstate 94, from Michigan to Montana. They have smiley faces spray-painted near the water where the men went in, and a victim count that started at forty and eventually passed seven hundred. The FBI says there is no evidence any of it is connected.
