Book excerpt: The true story of the predator who lured young women with promises of fame—from the national bestselling author of the “riveting” Honeymoon with a Killer (Publishers Weekly). Hopeful beauty Kristi Johnson, twenty-one, thought she was auditioning to model for a James Bond promotion. Following the directions of the man who approached her in a shopping mall, she drove to a mansion in the Hollywood Hills with a black mini-skirt and stiletto heels. Weeks later, Kristi’s body was finally photographed—by the county coroner. Her partially clad body had been found on a slope off Skyline Drive. Not one iota of forensic evidence was recovered. All investigators had was another Hollywood dream gone nightmare. But what seemed like a dead end soon found its lucky break. Responding to news reports about Kristi’s murder, calls from women came pouring in—all of them victims of bogus modeling gigs. One composite sketch later, Victor Paleologus, forty, already on parole for sexual assault, was taken into custody. Halfway through his sensational trial, Paleologus stunned everyone by entering a guilty plea and was sentenced to twenty-five years to life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic 1920s mystery, a debonair aristocrat turned amateur sleuth searches New York City for a killer drawing inspiration from nursery rhymes. Renaissance dandy Philo Vance has an insatiable hunger for complicated puzzles to solve. He frequently serves as an informal advisor to the police on demanding cases. And once again, New York District Attorney John Markham has quite a case for Vance. The body of Joseph Cochrane Robin was found pierced with an arrow and accompanied by a note signed “The Bishop.” Many of the crime scene’s details remind Vance of the children’s nursery rhyme “Who Killed Cock Robin?” Then more grisly deaths occur, and each seems to reference other characters from Mother Goose. In a case that doesn’t follow rhyme or reason, Vance must quickly determine who has Manhattan society whipped into a frenzy before another victim falls like Humpty Dumpty.

Download or read book A Death on W Street written by Andy Kroll and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named one of Mother Jones' BOOKS WE NEEDED IN 2022 Named one of CrimeReads' BEST NEW TRUE CRIME BOOKS OUT NOW A true-crime story for the post-truth era In the early hours of July 10, 2016, gunshots rang out and a young man lay fatally wounded on a quiet Washington, DC, street. But who killed Seth Rich? When he was buried in his hometown, his rabbi declared: “There are no answers for a young man gunned down in the prime of his life.” The rabbi was wrong. There were in fact many answers, way too many. In the absence of an arrest, a howling mob filled the void. Wild speculation and fantastical theories surfaced on social media and gained traction thanks to a high-level cast of provocateurs. But it wasn’t until Fox News took the rumors from the fringes to the mainstream that Seth Rich’s life and death grew into something altogether unexpected—one of the foundational conspiracy theories of modern times. A Death on W Street unravels this gripping saga of murder, madness, and political chicanery, one that would ensnare Hillary Clinton and Steve Bannon, a popular pizzeria in northwest DC and the most powerful voices in American media. It's the story of an idealistic twenty-seven-year-old political staffer who became a tragic victim of the culture wars, until his family decided that they had no choice but to defend his name and put an end to the cruel deceptions that surrounded his death. This is the definitive story of Seth Rich, of those who tried to weaponize his memory in a war of words unlike any other, and of one family’s crusade to protect the truth against all odds.

Cindy finds her newly beloved taken away from her, drowned in a freak accident in the ocean. The local police are quick to declare it an accident, to insist that he was caught in a sudden riptide. But Cindy, left all alone, is not convinced. In DEATH BY DIVORCE, Cindy is called for help when an old friend’s husband goes missing. Fresh from her own tragedy, Cindy returns to the Caribbean, this time to the gorgeous, lush island of Grenada, to find him. Cindy, still grieving her own husband’s death, stays at her friend’s incredible villa on the ocean, as she does her best to help track down her friend’s husband, Ames. As Cindy investigates, she meets the different characters on the island, some local, some fantastically rich, all of whom seem to be involved with each other, either romantically or in shady business dealings. As Cindy uncovers secret affairs, odd money dealings and drugs, she realizes there is a complex web on the island, hidden from public view. And as she digs deeper into Ames’ life, she is shocked to discover how many secrets he had been hiding from his wife—and that she never really knew the man she loved.
