It's finally here. True Crime Stories You Won't Believe: Book Two follows up from the first book with a new collection of bizarre tales of crime and punishment. They include:
- The real story behind “Arsenic and Old Lace” and why the reality isn’t as lighthearted as Hollywood made it out to be.
- A case in which a dream helped solve a gruesome murder. Or did it?
- When a staunch Irish sea captain murdered almost his entire crew on the high seas and what happened afterward.
- Did a Ouija board drive an Alabama mother and daughter to commit murder?
- The story of Jane Toppan and what drove her to kill so many of her patients.
- The story of Blanche Monnier, whose family locked her away for decades to keep her from marrying the wrong man.
- Was the Devil responsible for the murder of Alan Bono?
- The true story of the Vampire of Le Muy and his bizarre need to steal corpses.
- The story of Bridget Cleary, whose husband killed her in the belief that she had been replaced by fairies.
And this is just a sampling of the stories you will find. Though you may well be acquainted with some of these stories, I try to be as complete as possible, including newspaper accounts and additional details from what other true crime writers have written about these cases.
