anthology editor Mitzi Szereto shows us that the real monsters
aren't hiding in the woods: they're in our towns." January Magazine
#1 Bestseller in Heists & Robberies and Forensic Psychology A
collection of non-fiction accounts by international writers and
experts on small town true crime shows readers that the real
monsters aren't hiding in the woods, they're inside our towns.
Small towns aren't always what they seem. We've been told nothing
bad happens in small towns. You can leave your doors unlocked, and
your windows wide open. We picture peaceful hamlets with a strong
sense of community, and everyone knows each other. But what if this
wholesome idyllic image doesn't always square with reality? Small
towns might look and feel safe, but statistics show this isn't
really true. Tiny town, big crime. Whether in Truman Capote's
detailed murder of the Clutter family or Ted Bundy's small-town
charm, criminals have always roamed rural America and towns
worldwide. Featuring murder stories, criminal case studies, and
more,The Best New True Crime Stories: Small Townscontains all-new
accounts from writers of true crime, crime journalism, and crime
fiction. And these entries are not based on a true story they are
true stories. Edited by acclaimed author and anthologist Mitzi
Szereto, the stories in this volume span the globe. Discover how
unsolved murders, kidnapping, shooting sprees, violent robbery, and
other bad things can and do happen in small towns all over the
world. If you enjoyed Mitzi's last book in the series, The Best New
True Crime Stories: Serial Killers, and true crime books like In
Cold Blood, Murder in the Bayou, and The Innocent Man, then you'll
love The Best New True Crime Stories: Small Towns. THE BEST NEW
TRUE CRIME STORIES: SMALL TOWNS Contributors include Alexandra
