Book Description
Real-life is stranger and more frightening than fiction, and this book serves to cement that principal even further. In this compilation, there are eleven cases of some of the most deplorable, unjust and violent crimes I've come across. From cannibals to rapists to the sickest, most twisted criminals you've not yet heard of, you'll read about them all in this book. I'll tell you the story of Rurik Jutting, a British banker living in Hong Kong who held two women hostage, tortured them and raped them over a number of days. You'll learn about Issei Sagawa, a Japanese cannibal who killed and ate a woman - but walks free on the streets today. Then there's the vile three-week torture of an Australian woman who, when she was eventually rescued, paramedics initially thought she was dead. You can also read about the 'Hello Kitty' murder, which is as bizarre as it sounds - and as equally haunting. But please be warned, the cases in this book are highly disturbing and include graphic and distressing descriptions. Please take this trigger warning seriously as this book depicts horrific crimes that involve sexual abuse, domestic abuse, child abuse and graphic violence throughout. This book is intended to explore the evil in this world and expose the heinous behaviour some people are capable of. Please heed this warning before continuing to read.

Book Description
History's most infamous killers are often the most elusive. Cold cases recounts in fascinating detail the story of how these crimes have been solved and, in some cases, wrongfully convicted people saved by new evidence. There are stories of criminals who were tracked down after years of believing that they had, literally, got away with murder. They include Danny Keith Hooks, who murdered five prostitutes in a crack house, and Joe Clark, a psychotic teenager who liked to break the bones of younger boys before putting them to death. They, like many others here, escaped justice for a long time, but, finally, the long arm of the law reached out and slammed them behind bars. In other cases, new evidence has come to light, often years after someone has been tried and convicted, showing perhaps that an innocent person has been languishing behind bars and that the real killer is still on the loose. Such is the case with the famous "Serial" podcast program about Adnan Syed, originally convicted of killing his high school girlfriend which led to a re-examination of evidence and a brand new trail.

Book Description
Impeccably dressed, meticulously neat, Dana Sue Gray spared no expense on herself. Dropping thousands of dollars on a shopping binge or a luxurious day spa was nothing out of the ordinary for Dana--nor for many wealthy women. But Dana wasn't wealthy--she was an unemployed nurse. She was also a serial murderess, who preyed upon elderly women, violently killed them, then used their credit cards to embark on wild, post-murder spending sprees. Women serial killers are rare--there are only 36 documented cases--and those, like Dana Sue Gray, who murder so brutally that veteran police officers are shaken by the bloodiness of the crime scene, are even rarer. In To Die For, an exposé as shocking and fascinating as its subject matter, author Kathy Braidhill explores the stunning story of Dana Sue Gray, one of the most dangerous, deadly, and disturbed women in history.
