Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milton, Illinois is a small Midwestern town that sports an incredibly low crime rate. Violent crime is almost unheard of; only two murders in nearly forty years. A mysterious suicide brings one family back together in Milton. While asking around about their sister’s suicide, TH and Richie Brown find that both of the murder cases handled by their father, Chief of Police Teddy Brown, may have been fixed. A convicted killer lies dying of cancer in a nursing home. His release from prison has people talking about The Murder of Fatty Fuller and his conviction. Old questions come to light. An unsolved murder of a young black man nearly forty years earlier draws more attention. Are both cases somehow connected? As more questions arise, and as answers appear, history rears its ugly head and threatens to tear the Brown family apart.

Book Synopsis Murder after Death by : Richard Sugg
Download or read book Murder after Death written by Richard Sugg and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as museum exhibits of plastinated corpses, television dramas about forensics, and books about the eventual fate of human remains provoke interest and generate ethical debates today, anatomy was a topic of fascination-and autopsies a spectator pastime-in England from the mid-Elizabethan era through the outbreak of civil war. Rather than regard such preoccupations as purely macabre, Richard Sugg sees them as precursors of a profoundly new scientific and cultural discourse. Tracing the influence of continental anatomy on English literature across the period, Sugg begins his exploration with the essentially sacralizing aspects of dissection—as expressed, for instance, in the search for the anatomical repository of the soul—before detailing ways in which science and religion diverged from and eventually opposed each other. In charting this transition, Sugg draws his evidence from the fine detail of literary language, moving from sermons to plays, medical textbooks to sonnets, and from sensational short tales to Thomas Nashe's proto-novel The Unfortunate Traveller. As Sugg shows, the study of anatomy first offered to positively revitalize many areas of religious rhetoric. In time, however, the rising forces of early scientific enquiry transformed the body into an increasingly alien and secular entity. Within this evolution the author finds a remarkably rich, subtle, and unstable set of attitudes, with different forms of violence, different versions of the interior body, and implicit social, religious, and psychological stances variously cooperating or competing for supremacy.
Book Synopsis About the Murder of a Startled Lady by : Anthony Abbot
Download or read book About the Murder of a Startled Lady written by Anthony Abbot and published by Alien Ebooks. This book was released on 2023-11-09 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a seance reveals clues about a long-forgotten murder, Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt is skeptical but intrigued. A scientist-turned-parapsychologist claims a spirit told him of a woman named Madeline who was killed, dismembered, and stuffed into a box thrown into the ocean near a popular beach. Unwilling to dismiss the outlandish story, Colt discreetly dispatches his men to investigate. To his shock, divers discover a decayed wooden box containing over 200 human bones...the fragmented remains of the alleged victim. Though Colt refuses to believe in spirits, he can't ignore that a supernatural tip-off has uncovered a decades-old crime. This thrilling mystery will keep readers guessing as Colt pursues the cold case, questioning how a paranormal prophecy could uncover a body yet yield no clues about the motive or murderer.
Download or read book Wicked City written by Ace Atkins and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-04-10 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of the Quinn Colson series comes a “noir crime classic”(Mystery Ink) about one of the most notorious towns in American history. When crime-fighting attorney Albert Patterson is gunned down in a Phenix City, Alabama, alley in the spring of 1954, the entire town seems to pause for just a moment—and when it starts up again, there is something different about it. A small group of men meet and decide they have had enough, but what that means and where it will take them is something they could not have foreseen. Over the course of the next several months, lives will change, people die, and unexpected heroes emerge—like “a Randolph Scott western,” one of them remarks, “played out not with horses and Winchesters, but with Chevys and .38s and switchblades.” Peopled by an extraordinary cast of characters, both real and fictional, Wicked City is a novel of uncommon intensity, rich with atmosphere, filled with sensuality and surprise.
Book Synopsis Ring a Ring of Roses by : Randall Scott

Book excerpt: Police detective Robert Bailey, the world-weary veteran, and Alexandra Tyler, his beautiful, energetic partner, struggle to solve a series of staggeringly brutal murders. They discover a frightening link to the bubonic plague. Bailey and Tyler must also capture a sociopath and his two accomplices, who are terrorizing the community with their own brand of cruelty. "Jake's hand stopped in mid-swing. He slowly reached out and held her head with both hands and wiped the blood and tears from under her eyes with his thumbs. The room was deathly quiet. The only sound was Rachel's sniffles and coughs. Jake first turned his head toward Trigger and then at Pooch and said, 'she's sorry.' Jake smiled at Pooch and Pooch smiled at Jake." Discover the complicated, caring, often humorous relationship between Bailey and Tyler. "A ruminant is a hoofed animal that chews cud and has a complex three-or-four chambered stomach," said Bailey. "Look, who you date is your business, Bobby." Some books are read over several days or weeks or months. In this case, be sure you set aside a weekend before you begin Ring a Ring of Roses, because you will not put it down until its exciting, climactic ending.

Download or read book Room 1219 written by Greg Merritt and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1921, one of the biggest movie stars in the world was accused of killing a woman. What followed was an unprecedented avalanche of press coverage, the original "trial of the century," and a wave of censorship that altered the course of Hollywood filmmaking. It began on Labor Day, when comic actor Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, then at the pinnacle of his fame and fortune, hosted a party in San Francisco's best hotel. As the party raged, he was alone in room 1219 with Virginia Rappe, a minor actress. Four days later, she died, and he was charged with her murder. ROOM 1219 presents the crime story from the day of the "orgy" through the three trials. Relying on a careful examination of documents, the book finally reveals, after almost a century of wild speculation, what most likely occurred in room 1219. In addition, ROOM 1219 covers the creation of the film industry--from the first silent experiments to a studio-based system capable of making and, ultimately, breaking a beloved superstar"--
