The Sacramento Vampire: Life of Serial Killer Richard Trenton Chase (Serial Killer True Crime Books Book 21) by Jack Smith (74 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Vampires aren't real. But at one point in the 70s, in California, a man who had a penchant for drinking human blood and killing his victims terrorized the city of Sacramento. Here is his story. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited! Richard Trenton Chase Jr., otherwise known as the Sacramento Vampire, terrorized California during the 1970s. He brutalized, killed, and even ate his victims. But what stood out most in the public's imagination was his penchant for drinking their blood, like a modern-day vampire. The truth is, Chase was a severely disturbed individual. Some killers are cold-blooded monsters, some simply have terrible impulse control -- but others are completely deranged. Chase fits into that category. Since he was diagnosed with severe mental illness, it remains debatable how cognizant -- and how culpable -- Chase was of what he was doing. Prosecutors later highlighted several aspects of Chase's assaults which they believed showed that he was aware of the gravity of his actions, and should therefore be held accountable. His defense attorneys, on the other hand, tried to demonstrate that Chase was a man so removed from reality that he should be considered not guilty by reason of insanity. At any rate, whatever might have been going on in the mind of Richard Chase Jr., his victims were real, and the horrors he inflicted on them were very real as well. The deeds of Richard Chase Jr. most certainly make for a frightening, sad, and twisted tale. This book documents this disturbed man's troubled life, his horrific rampage, and his subsequent demise in full.

Solving Cold Cases Vol. 5: True Crime Stories that Took Years to Crack (True Crime Cold Cases Solved) by Andrew J. Clark (141 Reviews)    Price verified 6 hours ago

Chilling. One of the best words to describe the cases presented in this book. These gruesome crimes seemed to hit a dead end... That is until the cases were reopened for investigation and then solved thanks to modern technologies and new investigation techniques. This is Volume 5 of the popular Solving Cold Cases series. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited They are the nameless faces that cry out to us from old newspaper headlines and canned footage from local TV news stations. They are the stories of injustice so striking we can't quite forget, yet whose circumstances are so mysterious and perpetrators so elusive that we have no choice but to put them to the back of our minds. These cold cases scream for our attention, yet by their very nature remain on the back burner until some new lead comes forward. But as the books in this series demonstrate, although a case may be cold, it's never frozen. There is always the potential that a new clue, a new witness -- or in some cases, a perpetrator with a guilty conscience -- could break the case wide open. This book documents some of the more recent cold cases that have been cracked with just such late-breaking news information. To be sure, catching the criminals responsible for cold case murders does not bring the victim back to us, but it at least lets their families attain some measure of closure. This Fifth volume in the series Solving Cold Cases includes fourteen cases which will get your gears turning. Some of the cases included inside: ? Marlene Warren ? Robert Peterson, and John and Anton Schuessler ? Deana Bowdoin ? The victims of the Bathtub Killer ? and many more And if that's indeed what brought you to this book, you can rest assured that it contains some of the most spine-chilling, eyebrow-raising, and head shaking cold cases you could ever imagine. And remember -- these aren't fictitious figments of some rabid writer's imagination. This is real life, and real people who spent years ...

The Bayou Killer: Life of Serial Killer Ronald J. Dominique (Serial Killer True Crime Books Book 18) by Jack Smith (Maplewood Publishing) (99 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

We could swear some people are incapable of murdering another human being. Serial killer Ronald Dominique was also known as the Bayou killer was such a man. With an exterior that seems almost normal and some would say pitiful, this serial murderer was on a mission, not one anyone could have ever imagined... Some killers are truly surprising to find. Ronald J. Dominique is one such killer. Read this book to find out about how he came to be one of the most terrible people to walk on this planet. They say that the perpetrators of the very worst of deeds are often the people you'd least suspect. This was certainly true of Ted Bundy; he was a handsome, charming man whom many liked and respected. It was also true of accused Canadian serial killer Bruce McArthur, who had many friends and was well connected. No one expected that he might be capable of such violence. But then, what about Ronald Dominique? Nobody expected such things from him, either -- but for slightly different reasons. It wasn't because Dominique was charming; he was generally considered ugly and uncouth. Nor was it because he had a good job and was well connected -- he delivered pizza and worked as a meter reader. So why is it that no one suspected this man of doing such horrible things? Simply because he seemed too pathetic to pull them off. To those who knew him, he was just a simpleton eking out a meager existence -- but Ronald Dominique proved to be much smarter than anyone imagined. Ending the lives of 23 men and evading detection for over a decade, he became one of the most prolific serial killers on record. In this book, we'll explore the startlingly complex machinations of that warped mind. Dominique was a misfit who never quite fit into normal society. For the most part, he was ignored and sidelined. As this slovenly character delivered your pizza and read your meter, he didn't merit a second glance. But as this book details, there was much more to this crazed killer than met ...

Canada’s Most Notorious Serial Killers (Worst Serial Killers by Country True Crime Books) by Jack Smith (95 Reviews)    Price verified 8 hours ago

Canada might not be the first place one thinks of when serial killers are mentioned, but the country has had quite a number of such terrifying cases in its past, and this book attempts to give you an overview of the most significant cases. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited Canada, the Northern neighbor of the United States, is best known for its friendly sensibility, cold winters, and hockey games. When people think about Canada, they don't generally think about serial killings. But the U.S. and Mexico aren't the only North American countries that serial killers have called home: All throughout its centuries-long history, Canada has had its own fair share of murderous maniacs. This book presents accounts of eight of the worst serial killers to tread Canadian soil in recent memory: 1. Robert Pickton, the Pigheaded Killer The story of Robert Pickton, who terrorized the streets and back alleys of Vancouver, is so unbelievably grotesque you would think it was the work of some blood-and-gore Hollywood screenwriter. 2. Russell Williams: Trouble in Trenton Colonel Russell Williams was once a highly decorated and respected soldier in the Canadian Armed Forces. Then he decided to begin breaking into women's houses on the side, and from there, things kept getting worse and worse. 3. Bruce McArthur: Stalking Toronto's Village Perhaps no serial killer, however, has ever been quite as prolific as suspected murderer Bruce McArthur. As of right now his crimes are merely alleged, but with a projected body count that is estimated to rival Pickton's, McArthur seems destined to assume a prominent place among the most notorious murderers of the maple leaf. 4. Paul Bernardo: the Scarborough Rapist Paul Bernardo was unable to learn how to properly incorporate himself into the society and it turned out a disaster for countless women that had the misfortune of encountering him. 5.

Bad Guys: Personal Accounts of Military Service in the South African Defence Force 1969 to 1990 (Sentinel SADF Monographs) by Barry Fowler (43 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Bad Guys Personal Accounts of Military Service in the South African Defence Force 1969 to 1990 Most people today, when presented with the more recently accepted picture of the Apartheid regime that ruled in South Africa until the mid-1990s, can be excused for believing that all personnel who served in the Armed Forces of the South African Defence Force during that time were "Bad Guys", who personally suppressed the black population. With new and representative governments in power in both Namibia and South Africa today, not much evidence is likely to be produced to counter such an opinion. In this, and other books, we hope to present a human face of those involved in the SADF, most of whom were not remotely evil, and were just trying to make the best they could of a difficult and uncomfortable situation, without considering themselves to have been holding up the Apartheid regime. The 18 personal accounts in this book are by men who served part of their service in South-West Africa, during the border war. These are the thoughts, feelings and experiences of the men who were there.

STEADFAST WE DID STAND (Sentinel SADF Monographs) by Barry Fowler (22 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

STEADFAST WE DID STAND "Ahead of us was an Olifant with UNITA soldiers riding on top. The next moment there was a huge bang and the tank came out backwards towards us. It had been hit by a FAPLA tank... " 2008 marks the 20th anniversary of a series of battles fought in southern Angola, during a long and bitter war that had wracked that region of Africa for over 21 years. The South African offensive in late 1987 and early 1988, collectively known as Operation Hooper, consisted of a number of battles fought around the town of Cuito Cuanavale wherein a numerically inferior force of South African tanks, armoured cars and artillery, supported by UNITA forces, decimated three FAPLA Army Brigades and drove them back to Cuito Cuanavale itself. This is a series of recollections by six former South African soldiers about their experiences in Angola, during Operation Hooper. These personal accounts cover not only their involvement in Angola but the broader aspects of their service in the South African Army.

My Father's Son: A Memoir by John Davis (546 Reviews)    Price verified 10 hours ago

A compelling memoir of fathers, sons, and the Brooklyn streets. Every family has secrets. Ours were just bigger than others. "My earliest memory is of a gun." That gun was in his father's hand - and it was pointed at his mother's head. John Davis grew up in the 1970s and '80s on the rough streets of Brooklyn, a place where no one thought twice when parents smacked around their kids -- or each other. At the center of the tumultuous neighborhood, and John's world, was his larger-than-life father, Roberto. The Argentinean butcher and kingpin drug dealer was a sadistic bully whose mercurial temper left a trail of tears and chaos across his family. John, in particular, seemed to bear the brunt of Roberto's wildly swinging moods. Any wrong word could cause an explosion. Every knock on the door might be one of Roberto's enemies, or the police. In his publishing debut, Davis recounts how he spent his childhood in constant terror and his teen years learning to fight back. But it was much later, as an adult, that he learned the most shocking thing of all about his father, his past, and himself. Told with raw honesty and deep emotion, My Father's Son is a memoir of fear, abuse, survival, and identity.

SADF Border Base Layouts (Sentinel SADF Monographs) by Barry Fowler (4 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

This is a work in progress. I'm publishing at this time hoping that this draft will be found by people interested and willing to contribute to improving this book, and making it more comprehensive. The original remit was to identify each SADF base on the South West African - Angolan border, state its location, and provide a sketch map of the base layout, and maybe a photo or two to illustrate the layout of the base. Then `mission creep' became involved. Bases were developed over the years, some moved, and some were closed. There are thousands of photos of the border bases on the Internet, and it is not feasible to include many of them in such a book - even where copyright and permission can be established. Links and references are provided to related material elsewhere. Some border bases are described in detail, with there being little information about others. I publish what I have been given, and have been able to collect. There is much more out there that needs to be collected and preserved, before memories fade.

The personal accounts contained in this books are by men who completed their national service within South Africa, primarily and who did not go to South West Africa or Angola during the border war, either because they serve too late to be posted there, or because the service was considered to be essential elsewhere.

Russia, the largest country in the world, was the home of many known figures like Lenin, Tchaikovsky, Rasputin, and more. But this country also had many terrifying serial murder cases in its colorful past, and this book gives you an overview of the most infamous of them. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited! Beware the serial killers of Russia! They are as brazen as they are infamous, and many were at least partially nurtured by the systemic corruption present in the Russian legal system. And this book not only documents the terrible crimes perpetrated by these monsters but also how their own government repeatedly failed Russian citizens as it pertained to their capture. These notorious killers, such as Andrei Chikatilo, were notorious for practically flouting their sociopathic rampages while Russian authorities seemed to downplay -- and at times -- perhaps even look the other way. If so, then many involved in the Russian legal system are culpable in the horrendous crimes committed by monsters such as Andrei Chikatilo, Vasily Bolgarov, Sergey Cherny, and the like.

Boys Don't Tell: What Happens if they Do? by Barry Fowler (6 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

[Warning: Contains material that some readers might find triggering.] `People tell me things.' Boys experience abuse or sexual bullying away from home, by boys their age or older, or adult authority figures. Why do many go again knowing what could happen? Are they groomed, manipulated, exploited or threatened? Few raise concerns or ask for help. Some boys raise the alarm, at the time or years afterwards. Too many are let down by the very safeguarding systems put in place to protect them. This book is a personal exploration through youth organisations, schools and sports tours, the South African military and the British National Health Service by a psychologist using clinical histories, case studies, vignettes and experiences reported to him. The focus is on first-hand accounts and original documents, as well as finds in other publications, films and television. Sadly, the prevailing culture is too often to dismiss a boy asking for help, suggesting 'Man up!', 'Grow a pair!' and 'Big boys don't cry!'

Suffice to say I loved it! Jolly well done, Gary. From start to finish I could not put it down - I read it in one go. I do hate being interrupted when I am steamrolling through a good read. When I find that I need to eat or even that I need to take a leak it irritates me beyond measure. Also I definitely do not want to speak to anybody or have anyone speak to me. When I start with a good book I am quite unable to put it down until I am finished, whether it is 200 pages or a thousand plus. Above that I pass out whilst still reading, but when I wake up I just continue right where I had left off. For the snobs out there who are a saying that it is no Dostoevsky (sometimes transliterated as Dostoyevsky) or a Tolstoy, my answer to you is that not even a Dostoevsky or a Tolstoy, knew that it was a Dostoevsky or a Tolstoy until after it was not just written, but read and enjoyed by people... and I thoroughly enjoyed reading your book.
