I am pleased to announce that my new book True Crime Stories You Won't Believe: A Cavalcade of Chaotic Justice is finally out on Amazon (Kindle and paperback).
This book is a compilation of some of Providentia's true crime stories, revised and updated, that defy simple description.
They include:
- The strange tale of a psychotic geisha who severed her lover’s genitals to carry as a token of her love and who inspired a cult following
- How a small-town murderer helped inspire the movie Psycho and left his hometown with a reputation they never lived down
- A father who sacrificed his daughter to prove his faith in God and his followers who fully expected her to be raised on the third day (she wasn’t)
- A Sorbonne graduate student who killed and cannibalized the woman he loved and went on to become a bizarre media celebrity
- A 19th century serial killer who earned the title of “the worst woman in the world” by killing a series of husbands for profit
- The assassination attempt on John F. Kennedy you never heard about but which very nearly succeeded.
- George Stinney, the fourteen-year-old child who died in the electric chair for a crime he didn’t commit.
- Joseph Vacher, the “French Ripper” whose crimes shocked France but tried to blame it all on the rabid dog that bit him.
- How mob boss Vincent Gigante earned himself the nickname of “the Oddfather”
- Leonarda Cianciulli, the Corregio “Soapmaker” who killed three women as a sacrifice to protect her own children.
These stories, and more, are all featured here making this book a must for any connoisseur of true crime and bizarre justice. And a great gift idea with Mother's day coming up (or not). For now, it's available for free on Kindle Unlimited and I'd really appreciate some honest reviews from any of my readers. Contact me directly if you'd like a free epub version for examination and to review for your own blog or web page. I hope to do an entire series of Providentia books in time so keep an eye out for future titles.
