Soon the yacht is rocked with sensational triple axe-murders and Leslie is the only person who can inspire trust in the crew. But who is the killer? How will he get caught now?_x000D_ Excerpt:_x000D_ "The yacht Ella lay in the river not far from my hospital windows. She was not a yacht when I first saw her, nor at any time, technically, unless I use the word in the broad sense of a pleasure-boat. She was a two-master, and, when I saw her first, as dirty and disreputable as are most coasting-vessels. Her rejuvenation was the history of my convalescence. On the day she stood forth in her first coat of white paint, I exchanged my dressing-gown for clothing that, however loosely it hung, was still clothing. Her new sails marked my promotion to beefsteak, her brass rails and awnings my first independent excursion up and down the corridor outside my door, and, incidentally, my return to a collar and tie."

Teams of homicide detectives work their cases diligently, but with little success. Abigail Brown, a brilliant detective, has her work cut out for her once again. A trained profiler, she is convinced all the murders are the work of one killer. The only clues that back her theory are random numbers left behind at each crime scene. A black female cop, with a military background and a deep-rooted dedication to her job, Brown must dig deep, using all her investigative powers and instincts to find the unusual killer. Meet the investigators of the Detroit Major Case unit and see how their personalities, conflicts, and collaboration helps them to solve these gruesome murders.

The investigation that follows uncovers an extraordinarily complex and puzzling true-crime story.

Book Synopsis The Suicide Murders by : Howard Engel
Download or read book The Suicide Murders written by Howard Engel and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ontario PI Benny Cooperman is on the case of a suspicious suicide in this “convincingly complex” mystery “with an ironic sense of humor” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). Myrna Yates shows up at Benny Cooperman’s office asking him to check up on her husband, the contractor Chester Yates, who she believes is having an affair. It seems like an open-and-shut case, until Cooperman finds out that the straying spouse has committed suicide. Something doesn’t add up; Mr. Yates bought a 10-speed bicycle just 2 hours before he killed himself. Could this “suicide” in fact be murder? The Jewish detective’s got a whole new case on his hands, one in which the suspicions of a wife turn out to be much darker than anyone could have imagined. Cooperman’s a detective with flair. Kinder and gentler than your average PI—and ironically squeamish about violence—he’s the creation of author Howard Engel, a master of the crime genre whose enthusiastic fans have included Ruth Rendell, Donald E. Westlake, Julian Symons, and Tony Hillerman. Engel’s readership spans 13 countries, including Japan, England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, the United States, and his native Canada. The Suicide Murders is the first book in the Benny Cooperman Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
Book Synopsis Unsolved Western American Murders and Extended Cold Case Resolutions by : Marques Vickers
Download or read book Unsolved Western American Murders and Extended Cold Case Resolutions written by Marques Vickers and published by Marquis Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-18 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition profiles 75 illustrated murder cases committed within California, Oregon, Washington, Northern Idaho and Montana. Accompanying photography returns the reader to the scene of the crime with precise listed locations. The most daunting dilemma of a murder investigation is typically uncovering proof beyond a reasonable doubt that a perpetrator committed a killing. The evolution of forensic technology has enabled investigators to match DNA profiles from evidence obtained at a crime scene with specific individual samplings. This development has resulted in several high profile cases ultimately achieving resolution. Some of the accompanying profiles have developed promising suspects and probable perpetrators, but lacked the tangible evidence or persuasive courtroom presentation to convict. In a few instances, due to the notoriety of the trial, the court of popular opinion did convict the defendant, yet they remain free of incarceration. Other cases have simply lacked accompanying evidence from the outset and subsequent clues or confessions have never materialized. For a victim’s immediate circle of family, acquaintances and even society in general, a lack of closure becomes an accompanying torment. Stolen lives deserve accountability and one cannot fully understand the enormity of loss without concrete explanations of motive. Given time, some of these cases may one day find closure. Some murderers do have a conscience and scientific advancements may one day piece together the fractured incoherency of inconclusive evidence.

Download or read book Unsafe Harbor written by Gus Leodas and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At an exclusive Long Island yacht club, a police lieutenant and his investigator are trapped in a web of disappearances and deaths that link club members to Washington, the Coast Guard, and the underworld. An excerpt from Unsafe Harbor-- Cautious, he headed for shore and shallow water dragging the line. The magnet and object moved without encountering rock. Having no desire to share his treasure, Luke searched the shore, the bluffs and tree line to assure no one watched. This will be a secret for now. Seeing no one, he smiled from greed and scolded himself. At 6-feet depth, he saw the magnet attached to a long, dark object. What was it? The object did not look like a treasure chest. Images distorted underwater. Was it British cannon from the Revolutionary War? A British base was in Huntington Harbor. The cannon had to be valuable to a collector. History made it treasure. Wild with curiosity, Luke stared at the catch seeking identification as it moved towards shallow water until the depth was 3-feet. Then Luke's eyes widened and his breath stuck. The magnet attached to a chain wrapped around a man with his hands tied behind his back.
Book Synopsis The Killings Inthe Keys by : Colonel John J. Koneazny
Download or read book The Killings Inthe Keys written by Colonel John J. Koneazny and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06-17 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frankly, I dont know whether to call this manuscript fact or fiction. I know that what I have been able to check is fact, but this is mainly hearsay, as told to me by the real Harley Grant. I met Harley Grant (of course I have changed his name) in Public Market just as I have had Mike Bender meet him, in the beer isle. The second time I ran into him, I invited him over to the Green Flash our houseboat tied in Losers Lagoon for a drink. Dottie invited him for supper and after supper we sat around drinking Sam Adams. Dottie finally went to bed and we were still batting our gums. It was then that Harley told me this story that he swears is true. It was two in the morning when he finished. When he finished I shook my head in disbelief. I told him that I was going to check on it. He told me that I would find nothing. Big oil had destroyed any trace that it had ever happened. This I took with a grain of salt. I told this tale to a friend, a Lt. Commander in the Coast Guard. He said, Let me check on it, maybe I can find something in one of the old logs. I had almost forgotten about it when he got back to me. Jack, there may be something to that story you told me. I found this entry in the ships log of one of the decommissioned 84 foot cutters. Be on the lookout for a 70 or 80 foot yacht with xs and zs in its name which was last seen in Key West! This rekindled my interest and I went back to Harley and asked him to show me Hidden Cay. He took me down to the gate, but he said that Mike and Lois were on an extended stay in Goa. Yes, there were peafowl on the property! But that is the only verification that I could find, except I did locate Neal Forest and in a drunken stupor he admitted that he did row a couple of Chinks out to a big yacht. In this book I of course invented much of the dialogue and changed all the names. I tried to keep it as realistic as it was when Harley first told it by having Mike Bender tell the story. Further research proved fruitless. I was stonewalled everywhere I went! I even had one threat not to write a book about it. To hell with it, I am going to write it and call it FICTION!
