Every now and then I feel like reading something grisly. If you like to watch detective shows like City Confidential or Cold Case Files, you may enjoy reading true crime books, too. As they say, truth is stranger (and more intriguing) than fiction.
Here are a few good titles to try:
Halfway Heaven: Diary of a Harvard Murder by Melanie Thernstrom
Murder in the Heartland by M. Williams Phelps
Sins of the Son by Carlton Stowers
The Woodchipper Murder by Arthur Herzog
