"A bank robber goes on a spree. A man confesses to a murder he did'nt commit. A gangster tortures his accomplice. The perfect murder is attempted by two teenagers. These are just a few of the cases - fact and fiction, little known and legendary - that Alix Lambert explores in her investigation of the nature of crime, both real and imagined." "Throughout these compelling interviews - with detectives, actors, murderers, film directors, prison inmates and authors - a constant theme emerges: Could I do that? Is it bad luck or bad judgement that pushes someone over the edge? The boundaries between safety and danger aren't as defined as we'd like to believe."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
Investigate 100 of the world's most notorious crimes, including the Great Train Robbery, the Lindbergh kidnapping, and the murders of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. Were the perpetrators delusional, opportunist, or truly evil? Find out what really happened and how the cases were solved. Discover conmen with sheer verve, such as Victor Lustig who "sold" the Eiffel Tower to scrap dealers in 1925, adrenaline-fuelled escapes, and mind-bending exploits of pirates, kidnappers, and drug cartels. The Crime Book demystifies malware, cybercrimes, and Ponzi schemes and sets out the terrifying ploys of mass murderers from 16th-century Elizabeth Báthory who drained young girls' blood to the more recent exploits of Rosemary and Fred West. Like a virus, crime mutates and adapts. The Crime Book explains how pivotal moments in history opened up new opportunities for criminals, such as the smuggling of alcohol during the American Prohibition era. It also charts developments in justice and forensics including the Innocence Project, which used DNA testing to exonerate wrongly convicted convicts. It examines how the forces of law and order have fought back against crime, explaining ingenious sting operations such as tracking down the jewel thief Bill Mason and the final capture of murderer Ted Bundy. With a foreword from bestselling crime author Cathy Scott, The Crime Book is an enthralling introduction to humanity's darker side. Series Overview: Big Ideas Simply Explained series uses creative design and innovative graphics, along with straightforward and engaging writing, to make complex subjects easier to understand. These award-winning books provide just the information needed for students, families, or anyone interested in concise, thought-provoking refreshers on a single subject.

Unbelievable Crimes Volume Three

Category : True Crime

Pages : 113
Book Description
Take a journey with me into the depths of human malice in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Three. In this third installment, I delve into some of the most appalling (yet lesser-known) crimes of our time, walking with you through a truly shocking odyssey of wickedness. I’ve delved deep into the annals of true crime, and compiled an anthology of tales even the most knowledgeable of crime readers are unaware of. Discover the sinister story of “The Pockmarked Man”, a mysterious figure whose heinous actions left a trail of devastation in his wake. He preyed on the women of Paris, assaulting them in horrific ways before ending their lives mercilessly. I’ll also cover the tragic murder of Julia Rawson, a case that exposed the depths of evil that can lurk within seemingly ordinary people. A serial killer fanatic lured Julia back to his home before killing and dismembering her with the help of an accomplice. Explore the twisted minds of Robert and Stephen Spahalski, a case of identical twins who were bound by blood - but united by their disturbing criminal acts. Read about the head-spinning web of deceit crafted by Dalia Dippolito, a woman whose cunning manipulation and determination to kill her husband will shock you. While this case reads like a script for a far-fetched thriller movie, this case is no tale of fiction. Uncover the truth behind the tragic and senseless murder of Angela Samota, a young woman whose life was brutally cut short, with unimaginable cruelty. Decades passed with Angela’s killer free to roam the streets... but would advancements in DNA help snare her murderer and bring them to justice? Get to know these little-known cases and six more lesser-covered crimes in Unbelievable Crimes Volume Three. As with every book of this series, I will ensure the victims’ suffering is remembered and be sure to emphasize the monstrous actions of criminals. This book delves into the darkest depths of human nature, recounting real-life cases of murder, violence, and unimaginable cruelty. Please bear this in mind before reading.

Yet you will be unable to stop reading, turning page after page. Each true crime anthology in this collection will leave you to ponder whether the perpetrators of these crimes were really monsters. When you learn of the background of these killers, the age-old question of whether a serial killer is born to kill will be at the forefront of your mind.
