Book Description
The never-before-told true account of the serial killers who terrorized Nashville's music scene for decades--and the cold-case Murder Squad determined to bring an end to their sadistic sprees. Nashville--a haven for aspiring musicians and a magnet for country-music fans. By the time Pat Postiglione arrived there in 1980, it was also the scene of an unsolved series of vicious sex slayings that served as a harbinger of worse to come. As Postiglione was promoted from street-beat Metro cop to detective sergeant heading Music City's elite cold-case Murder Squad, some of America's most bizarre, elusive, and savage serial killers were calling Nashville home. And during the next two decades, the body count climbed. From Vanderbilt University to dive bars and out-of-the-way motels, Postiglione followed the bloody tracks of these ever-escalating crimes--each enacted by a different psychopath with the same intent: to murder without motive or remorse. But of all the investigations, of all the monsters Postiglione chased, few were as chilling, or as game changing, as the Rest Stop Killer: a homicidal trucker who turned the interstates into his trolling ground. Next stop, Nashville. But Postiglione was waiting.

El Monstruo
Author: John Ross
Publisher: Bold Type Books
ISBN: 1568586116
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 516
Book Description
John Ross has been living in the old colonial quarter of Mexico City for the last three decades, a rebel journalist covering Mexico and the region from the bottom up. He is filled with a gnawing sense that his beloved Mexico City's days as the most gargantuan, chaotic, crime-ridden, toxically contaminated urban stain in the western world are doomed, and the monster he has grown to know and love through a quarter century of reporting on its foibles and tragedies and blight will be globalized into one more McCity. El Monstruo is a defense of place and the history of that place. No one has told the gritty, vibrant histories of this city of 23 million faceless souls from the ground up, listened to the stories of those who have not been crushed, deconstructed the Monstruo's very monstrousness, and lived to tell its secrets. In El Monstruo, Ross now does.

Eli's Guide to Staying Alive in Monster City
Author: Alyssa Rucker
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Originally posted on Reddit's r/nosleep and largely unedited from the online series, Eli's rules and stories are now here to stay as a novel, with a few extra tidbits thrown in! Eli always thought a list of rules to survive some insane situation like a zombie apocalypse was a bit ridiculous. How would *rules* be enough to save you in a hellscape like that? ...But then his world went to shit, and he realized a list of rules might just save his life. Twelve rules, to be exact. Twelve rules to deal with all the types of monsters that have overrun his city - which has been completely cut off from the outside world by a massive, impenetrable dome. Armed with the rules, his best cat friend Mr. Bailey, and a penchant for naming the monsters after people he hated in high school (there were a lot, okay), every day is a fight to stay alive in monster city. But maybe not all hope is lost. Sure, Eli saw his entire family die, and sure, there may be no way out...but maybe there is. And maybe he's not the last human left (he hopes not, because if *he's* the best humanity has to offer, we're in trouble). And as he continues to survive and delve deeper, it turns out there may be more to the dome and the monsters than he ever imagined. A lot more. Which means his rules are more important than ever, and so are his stories.So hug your family (for Eli, because he can't, and really wishes he still could), relax, and get ready. Because Eli (and Mr. Bailey) present to you: ELI'S GUIDE TO STAYING ALIVE IN MONSTER CITY *Suggested for ages 16+ due to language and violence*
