The Third Rainbow Girl
Author: Emma Copley Eisenberg
Publisher: Hachette Books
ISBN: 0316449202
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
*** A NEW YORK TIMES "100 Notable Books of 2020" *** A stunning, complex narrative about the fractured legacy of a decades-old double murder in rural West Virginia—and the writer determined to put the pieces back together. In the early evening of June 25, 1980 in Pocahontas County, West Virginia, two middle-class outsiders named Vicki Durian, 26, and Nancy Santomero, 19, were murdered in an isolated clearing. They were hitchhiking to a festival known as the Rainbow Gathering but never arrived. For thirteen years, no one was prosecuted for the “Rainbow Murders” though deep suspicion was cast on a succession of local residents in the community, depicted as poor, dangerous, and backward. In 1993, a local farmer was convicted, only to be released when a known serial killer and diagnosed schizophrenic named Joseph Paul Franklin claimed responsibility. As time passed, the truth seemed to slip away, and the investigation itself inflicted its own traumas—-turning neighbor against neighbor and confirming the fears of violence outsiders have done to this region for centuries. In The Third Rainbow Girl, Emma Copley Eisenberg uses the Rainbow Murders case as a starting point for a thought-provoking tale of an Appalachian community bound by the false stories that have been told about. Weaving in experiences from her own years spent living in Pocahontas County, she follows the threads of this crime through the complex history of Appalachia, revealing how this mysterious murder has loomed over all those affected for generations, shaping their fears, fates, and desires. Beautifully written and brutally honest, The Third Rainbow Girl presents a searing and wide-ranging portrait of America—divided by gender and class, and haunted by its own violence.

The Collected Crime Novels Volume Three

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 853
Book Description
Gripping suspense from the international bestselling British novelist who writes “crime novels with action to keep you guessing until the very end” (Daily Mail). New York Times–bestselling British novelist Clare Francis has proven again and again that she “has serious crime writing talent” (The Mail on Sunday). These psychological thrillers involve murdered mistresses, mysterious stalkers, and taut courtroom drama. Betrayal: Businessman Hugh Wellesley’s life takes an unexpected turn when he learns that the stabbed and bound corpse of his mistress, Sylvie Mathieson, has been dredged from the River Dart. Embroiled in a company buyout and unwilling to admit to his affair, Wellesley is brought up on criminal charges—despite the unsettlingly fierce support he receives from his sickly wife, Ginny. As the trial date looms and new suspects arise, unraveling the real circumstances of Sylvie’s death becomes paramount. “Fascinating . . . a grown-up thriller, highly recommended.” —The Washington Post Book World Keep Me Close: Catherine Galitza is viciously attacked by an intruder in her own home, thrown down the stairwell, and left with serious injuries. As she recovers, she works to solve the mystery of her attacker’s identity, focusing on the barrage of nuisance phone calls she’s been receiving for months. Catherine begins to consider the idea of a stalker, a watcher who has become obsessed, playing a silent role in her life. Two men are curiously intent on helping her discover the truth—Simon Jardine, her husband’s business partner; and Terry Devlin, an Irish hotelier she has known since youth. But are the men in her life who they seem to be? “Francis is adept at creating a mood of suspense . . . authentically chilling.” —The Times (London) Unforgotten: Lawyer Hugh Gwynne’s client Tom Deacon is seeking damages after a car accident in which he witnessed the death of his young daughter. The case seems poised for victory as a result of the man’s PTSD. But when an anonymous letter arrives for Gwynne, he finds himself confronting an impossible ethical dilemma. And when he experiences his own tragic loss, Gwynne can’t shake the feeling that his client may not be as innocent as he claims . . . “Devilishly clever . . . unputdownable.” —Daily Mail
