True Crime

By Jackson, October 3, 2009

COMING TO A BOOKSTORE (OR WEBSITE) NEAR YOU! OCT. 6, 2009! Not Lost Forever by true crime vet Steve Jackson and Carmina Salcido is Salcido’s remarkable story of survival and healing following the 1989 murderous rampage by her father, Mexican immigrant Ramon Salcido in the wine country of Sonoma Valley, California. Left for dead at three years old—her throat brutally slashed—Carmina miraculously survived what is widely considered one of California’s most notorious crimes: the unthinkable attack that savagely destroyed seven innocent lives, including her entire family. At once a harrowing true crime story and the inspirational first-person account of a young girl’s strength, heart, and determination in the nightmare’s aftermath, Not Lost Forever is a shocking and profoundly moving tale of perseverance and hope, and of a precious life regained.

Partners in Evil, the shocking true story of a pair of best friends–one a liar and ladies’ man, the other deeply religious–who each developed an obsession with violent pornography which led them to commit the brutal rape, torture, and mutilation of a young woman in 1997.

In Love Me To Death, “New York Times” bestselling author delivers the shocking true story of “Wild Bill Cody” Neal–a seductive charmer who in 1998 tortured and slaughtered three love-struck women in Denver, Colorado, and was later convicted and sentenced to death thanks to one survivor’s testimony.

No Stone Unturned

A body stuffed in a car trunk swallowed by the swirling, muddy waters of the Missouri River. A hiker brutally murdered, scalped, then thrown off a cliff in a remote mountain range. A devious killer, who hides his wife’s body under a thick, cement patio. For beleaguered police agencies and stymied murder investigators the story is often the same: they know a murder took place, they may even know who did it. But without a body, without key evidence, pursuing a conviction is nearly impossible. That’s when they call NecroSearch the subject of best-selling author Steve Jackson’s book No Stone Unturned. Jackson chronicles how NecroSearch came into being, how it developed, and why it is now being called into murder cases all across America and in a half dozen foreign countries to find the bodies of murder victims so that the killers can be brought to justice.

Rough Trade

In Rough Trade former cop-turned-crack-addict and prostitute Joanne Cordova shares her true story of her relationship with psychotic murderer Robert Riggan — a monster who preyed on women. This is the riveting story of Riggan’s crimes, and the woman who pulled herself out of a criminal world — and her own hell — to testify against him.

Monster

Monster- On February 13, 1982, twenty-one-year-old Mary Brown accepted a ride from a handsome, polite stranger in the ski resort town of Breckenridge, Colorado. Hours later, her battered, bloodied body was treated by emergency room doctors who couldn’t believe a human being had inflicted such massive traumatic injuries. Mary would miraculously survive her hellish encounter with the vicious predator whose rape and beating all but killed her. But his violence had just begun… Police quickly found the vehicle in which Mary had been assaulted-a truck with a smashed windshield and a blood-smeared interior. And it wasn’t long before its owner-mild-mannered, blue-eyed Tom Luther-pled guilty and was convicted. But ten years later, the system that should have put Luther away for good released a hardened, more psychotic, and much more dangerous criminal. And this time, he swore his victims would never live to testify against him. One cop was obsessed with catching this brutal killer and pinning at least one Colorado murder on him. But as Luther led Detective Scott Richardson through a maze of lies and deception, the stakes began to rise.
