True Crime Memoir

Thirty-three-year-old Megan has the life she’s always wanted: a loving husband, two beautiful children, a meaningful career as a church music director, and most recently, her dream home. Then, she’s confronted with the news that her former high school band director has been arrested for child sexual abuse. The police are asking for anyone with information about the teacher to come forward, and Megan has plenty. But choosing to help the police means facing her own past, and that won’t be easy since she doesn’t believe she was a victim of abuse.

Their names echo through true crime history like dark legends: John Wayne Gacy, the Zodiac Killer, Richard Ramirez, Aileen Wuornos, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, and the Golden State Killer. Their infamous deeds have been exhaustively chronicled across every medium imaginable. But beyond these household names lies a shadow world of equally chilling cases that rarely make headlines or streaming television documentaries.

The true crime genre tends to revolve around the same notorious names, retold until every detail becomes familiar. But for every killer who achieved infamy, dozens more committed equally heinous acts that barely made it past the local news. Their victims' stories remain untold, their families' grief unacknowledged. This collection digs deeper, unearthing cases that prove not all monsters are famous. These accounts reveal that the most disturbing crimes often happen far from the spotlight—in quiet suburbs, rural communities, and forgotten corners where evil thought no one was watching.

This huge set of 10 Volumes of Curated True Crime - with over 160 stories in total - has some of the most gut wrenching, twisted, and disturbing murders ever.
