Ten Homicide Cases I Could Never Forget
Many of my readers have asked me to write a book that had
many shorter cases in it, something they could read on the
bus or at the beach. A Rage to Kill is a response to their
requests.
Over the past 30 years, I have researched 1400 murder
cases. Some are so unusual that they stand out in my memory.
People kill one another for all manner of reasons: jealousy,
revenge, anger, in the act of committing another felony, over
love gone wrong--or even accidentally. However, the cases in
this sixth volume of my True Crime Files demonstrate some of
the most bizarre reasons for murder I ever encountered.
There are two long pieces. The first is an inside look at
the mysterious crash of a huge bus that went off the tallest
bridge in Seattle in November, 1998: "A Bus to
Nowhere." The second is called "Profile of a Spree
Killer." You will also find "That Was No
Lady," "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town,"
"To An Athlete Dying Young," "The Killer Who
Planted His Own Clues," " As Close As a
Brother," and many other true cases.
Some of these case studies are very sad and some still
strike me as absolutely unbelievable.
I hope you find them interesting!
