True Crime Books

An interest in true crime is the sign not of a ghoul, but of an inquiring mind, usually one filled with empathy for victims and survivors of crime, and a desire to understand and possibly prevent crime and to acknowledge and support individuals and communities that have been impacted by crime. In compiling this list I have tried to select a variety of crimes that have had a profound effect on my awareness and live on in my memory.
