Book excerpt: One of NPR's "Books We Love" New York Times Book Review's "The Best True Crime of 2022" "Rich in historical perspective and graced by novelistic touches, grips the reader from first to last.”—Wall Street Journal A suspense filled tale of murder on the American frontier—shedding new light on a family of serial killers in Kansas, whose horrifying crimes gripped the attention of a nation still reeling from war. In 1873 the people of Labette County, Kansas made a grisly discovery. Buried by a trailside cabin beneath an orchard of young apple trees were the remains of countless bodies. Below the cabin itself was a cellar stained with blood. The Benders, the family of four who once resided on the property were nowhere to be found. The discovery sent the local community and national newspapers into a frenzy that continued for decades, sparking an epic manhunt for the Benders. The idea that a family of seemingly respectable homesteaders—one among the thousands relocating farther west in search of land and opportunity after the Civil War—were capable of operating "a human slaughter pen" appalled and fascinated the nation. But who the Benders really were, why they committed such a vicious killing spree and whether justice ever caught up to them is a mystery that remains unsolved to this day. Set against the backdrop of postbellum America, Hell’s Half-Acre explores the environment capable of allowing such horrors to take place. Drawing on extensive original archival material, Susan Jonusas introduces us to a fascinating cast of characters, many of whom have been previously missing from the story. Among them are the families of the victims, the hapless detectives who lost the trail, and the fugitives that helped the murderers escape. Hell’s Half-Acre is a journey into the turbulent heart of nineteenth century America, a place where modernity stalks across the landscape, violently displacing existing populations and building new ones. It is a world where folklore can quickly become fact and an entire family of criminals can slip through a community’s fingers, only to reappear in the most unexpected of places.

Download or read book Hell's Half Acre written by David Finch and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2005 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hell's Half Acre is the story of the people who lived and worked in Turner Valley, western Canada's first commercial oilfield, located southwest of Calgary. Beginning in 1914, the oil fields attracted thousands of workers from across North America to the drilling rigs, processing plants, and the pipeline crews that dug the first trenches. In addition to the beginnings of an oil industry, Turner Valley provided Alberta with a rich historical legacy of epic proportions, along with a cast of very colourful characters. Drawing on contemporary accounts and dozens of interviews with Turner Valley pioneers, as well as probing the vast visual history of archival photographs, David Finch captures the life and times of an exciting era in Alberta history. Imagine natural gas flares so plentiful and powerful that night turned into day and the glowing sky could be seen from Calgary. The smell of sour gas and its deadly effects were a constant danger, as were the primitive work conditions associated with the early years of oil exploration. But on the workers toiled, constructing massive drilling rigs out of huge timbers, working day and night in a relentless search for black gold. The Second World War brought an unprecedented level of urgency and tension to Turner Valley when the national treasure became a military target. These were fascinating times, and in Hell's Half Acre the people, the companies, the booms and the busts are all revealed in entertaining detail.

Download or read book Southern Select written by Tim Bryant and published by Speaking Volumes. This book was released on with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Worth, TX detective Alvis "Dutch" Curridge is back, and he's bringing Slant Face Sanders and the gang along for the ride of their lives. When the bartender at his favorite hangout, Peechie Keen's, is murdered, it's up to Dutch to set things right. And this time, he has to do it without Ruthie Nell Parker. Peechie Keen's bar in Old Fort Worth's Hell's Half-Acre is the site of the brutal murder of barkeep Patrick Cavanaugh, and Alvis "Dutch" Curridge's investigation of the crime presents a rogue's gallery of the southern criminal element with concisely-drawn characters that would have made Raymond Chandler weep with envy. As insightful as a red-tailed hawk riding the hot Texas wind over a rabbit warren, Tim Bryant's noirish literary wit and charm leaves me spellbound. Southern Select is most highly recommended! —George Wier, author of The Bill Travis Mysteries.

Book excerpt: "Ask anyone what they love most about Winzer, and they seem always to tell you it's the people, the family and friends webbed around each of us. True. But for me the town is also, and perhaps mainly, the larger-than-life characters who ghost around in my imagination and my memory: rumrunners and prize fighters and elegant old ladies and one-eyed thugs and earnest well-meaning politicians and hucksters and hookers and crusty old editors. Many of them I remember meeting. Some of them I actually met." —from The River The River is Paul Vasey’s tribute to a place he discovered by accident and loved over a lifetime. Chatty, anecdotal, personal and passionate, by one of Windsor’s most celebrated reporters and radio hosts, this meandering memoir winds its way around a river town whose sights and characters may never be fully charted: a Windsor that fired a reporter’s imagination, stole his heart, and eventually became the place he calls home.

Book excerpt: A secret crush. A filthy lie. A disastrous reunion. And a little present set to make an event more memorable…unless the wrong wire is cut and it all goes out with a bang. When I see him, for the first time since high school, I still cringe. Clearly, all those years were not enough. Nixon is as cocky and short-sighted as he always was, only this time, he’s an acclaimed actor. It seems that he’s forgotten all the heartache he caused me back in the day, but when it all comes to him, I’m met with a surprising fact that brings me back to earth. All this, on the night of the Academy Awards party, where my biggest client, Kayla, takes the stage and has her coveted moment. In the same breath, as she finishes her game-changing speech, we’re all met with something we don’t expect, and suddenly Kayla is not the only bomb. *** If she walked a mile in my shoes, she wouldn’t be focusing on some high school prank. But Rene is no more matured than she was when we were kids. Nobody knows the truth and as far as I’m concerned, we can keep it that way. Some old high school flame with a stick up her ass that’s been stuck there since her teens, is the last thing I need. Except that when the chips come down, she’s the only one there for the carnage. And then she learns the truth, and her eyes say something way different than they said when we were kids. But after lines are blurred and rules are broken, can we pick up where we left off? I’m not sure. And then the flash of a camera and a mic shoved in my face leads me to where I need to be...
