Book Description

Night falls and the rivers of blood flow forth once more. For what are murderers if not creatures of the dark? Hiding in plain sight as the average neighbor, co-worker or even employer, just waiting for the moment to unleash their murderous urges. Whether they are sadistic in their methods or not does not change the common trait that they all share: the presence of evil. These crimes shock us to the core, leading us to wonder just what is going on in their minds that leads them to take lives without any feeling of remorse...yet deep down we're actually intrigued by their crimes. Fascinated, even. In truth, these killers bring forth a dark curiosity that keeps us reading chapter after chapter, book after book, and once we're done we begin to reflect on how interesting the psychology behind these characters can be. It is precisely because of this wondrous fascination that we have compiled a fresh set of three True Crime Stories books, following the success of our first collection, this time with the bestselling volumes 4-6. 36 tales of bloodshed and terror, police investigation and the background of each and every killer await you, with each subject varying from serial killer to mass murderer, ruthless monster to seemingly harmless member of the community. No two killers are the same and no two murders are committed for the same reason - this much you are about to find out. Reader, you are about to embark on a road of horror, death and cruelty...are you ready to walk the blood-chilling path into the mind of a killer?

Book Description

It is no secret that true crime murder stories are not for the faint of heart. They can lead you to double-check your windows and doors at night, and question everything you thought or believed about human nature. Yet they are intriguing and fascinating at the same time. What is it that makes us different from those who take the lives of others? That is a question that many ask themselves, and these true crime stories help to identify the method and psychology behind some of the most terrifying killers in modern history. This set includes three true crime books, volumes 1-3, and each is filled with a variety of true crime murder cases, including spree killers and massacres, some of which are yet to be solved. You are taken through the background of the story, the murders, and the criminal investigations that took place. Some pages will be difficult to read, due to the emotion behind them. 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. Explore the stories behind the murders in these True Crime volumes, the anger, the horror, and the sadism, inflicted by each killer. Feel for the victims, their families, and the investigators who had to deal with each case. And don't be surprised if you have to sleep with the light on.

An angel locked out of Heaven. A demon on the hunt for an escaped soul. Watch out, because all Hell is about to break loose. When the Archangels slammed the pearly gates shut on the great war between the Demons and the Fae, the Angel Shemasiel missed the memo. Trapped alone on Earth, she's spent the past few millennia sticking her nose in where it's not wanted, and generally being a nuisance to the people in charge. Posing as human investigative reporter Neveah Lane, she's first on the scene of a mysterious death with hallmarks of the supernatural. But when one of Hell's most notorious demons is also sent to investigate, it quickly becomes apparent that more is at stake than the death of a single woman. Now, with the truce between two powerful, warring races hanging in the balance, a stranded angel and Hell's most devious spymaster must choose whether to oppose each other on principle, or work together for peace. As the two orbit each other in pursuit of their competing goals, Neveah finds herself experiencing the appeal of the forbidden for the first time in her ageless existence. Angels are supposed to be immune from temptation. Too bad Neveah was never a very good angel. * * * The Sixth Demon is a new urban fantasy romance series by R. A.
