Guilty as charged. If reading true crime is a guilty pleasure, this
collection of stunning heists and unspeakable murders from the
front pages of history will leave no doubt about the verdict. Three
unsuspecting men's lives cut short at the hands of their lovers in
Gangland Chicago, a mysterious and murderous trapper chased across
unforgiving Arctic mountains in sub-zero temperatures, a notorious
band of outlaws' ill-fated bank robbery, a little-known but starkly
detailed look at Lizzie Borden's handiwork with her famous ax, a
body in a trunk and a suspect halfway across the world thinking
he's pulled it off are among the enticing and unsettling tales in
this arresting collection. Here are stories sure to intrigue and
shock readers and put them on the edges of their seats. That's the
point after all, and The Greatest Crime Stories Ever Told will not
disappoint. From a first-person account of the infamous Lufthansa
robbery that netted millions, to the beguiling society bank robber
so confident he broke into the same New York City bank twice to
pull off the biggest haul in history, to the mysterious and brutal
murders of a quiet farm family in a close-knit but suspicious
community that offered an unusual number of suspects, The Greatest
Crime Stories Ever Told is a fascinating and darkly enticing
contribution to the wildly popular true crime genre. Here are not
only the suspects, obvious or not, but the detectives who wanted
them in prison and were willing to put their own lives at risk to
do so. Did the perpetrators get away with their perfidies? Did the
rule of law prevail in the end? Were the right people caught and
prosecuted? Readers will have to decide for themselves.
