  12 Disturbing True Crime Stories  
  Volume 19 of the True Crime Case Histories Series 
  In quiet suburbs and familiar neighborhoods, evil often wears the most ordinary face. This collection of twelve meticulously researched cases exposes the chilling reality that the most dangerous predators aren't strangers lurking in shadows—they're the people we trust, the neighbors we greet, and the faces we see every day. 
  A sampling of the stories includes: 
  The Pink Princess–A seven-year-old girl's excitement about Christmas gifts delivered to her door became the beginning of a nightmare that would haunt a small community. When the delivery driver who brought her packages decided she was a threat to his career, his solution defied all comprehension. 
  The Wrong Car–A college senior celebrating her final weeks before law school opened an app and requested a ride home. But the car that pulled up wasn't the rideshare she thought it was. 
  The Forbidden Closet–A nineteen-year-old's curiosity about her mother's locked closet uncovered an unthinkable secret that had been hidden for over a decade. 
  The Long Walk Home–A high school senior walked home from a party, unaware a classmate lurked in the shadows. For thirty years, he attended the same reunions while her family searched for answers. 
  The Blue Earth Jane Doe–For thirty-five years, she lay in an unmarked grave, her identity stolen along with her life. It took the determination of a stranger who couldn't bear seeing "Unknown" on a headstone, and advances in DNA technology to finally bring her back to her family. 
  Plus seven more shocking stories.

  The Boys of the Dark - A Story...

  The harrowing true story of the abuses two boys suffered at a Florida reform school and how they came together fifty years later to confront their attackers. 
   
  “[The Boys of the Dark] reads seamlessly… . . . A worthy exploration of a regrettably long-lasting true-crime nightmare.” —Kirkus Reviews 
   
  Michael O’McCarthy and Robert W. Straley were teens when they were termed “incorrigible youth” by authorities and ordered to attend the Florida School for Boys. They discovered in Marianna, the “City of Southern Charm,” an immaculately groomed campus that looked more like an idyllic university than a reform school. But hidden behind the gates of the Florida School for Boys was a hell unlike any they could have imagined. The school’s guards and administrators acted as their jailers and tormentors. The boys allegedly bore witness to assault, rape, and possibly even murder. 
   
  For fifty years, both men—and countless others like them—carried their torment in silence. But a series of unlikely events brought O’McCarthy, now a successful rights activist, and Straley together, and they became determined to expose the Florida School for Boys for what they believed it to be: a youth prison with a century-long history of abuse. They embarked upon a campaign that would change their lives and inspire others. 
   
  Robin Gaby Fisher, a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and author of the New York Times–bestselling After the Fire, collaborates with Straley and O’McCarthy to offer a riveting account of their harrowing ordeal. The book goes beyond the story of the two men to expose the truth about a century-old institution and a town that adopted a Nuremberg-like code of secrecy and a government that failed to address its own wrongdoing. What emerges is a tale of strength, resolve, and vindication in the face of the kinds of terror few can imagine. 
   
  “Haunting and disturbing. The voices of the victims will forever touch my heart. To turn a deaf ear to this type of injustice is to give permission for it to continue. As a people, as a society, we should be outraged.” —Jennifer Thompson, coauthor of Picking Cotton 
   
  “This deeply moving story is highly recommended to readers of heart-wrenching memoirs, 20th-century American studies, or true crime.” —Library Journal

  In January 1947, the body of Elizabeth Short, completely drained of blood, was discovered in an undeveloped lot in Los Angeles. Its gruesome mutilations led to a firestorm of publicity, city-wide panic, and an unprecedented number of investigative paths led by the LAPD—all dead ends. The Black Dahlia murder remained an unsolved mystery for over seventy years. 
   
   
   
  Six years earlier and sixteen hundred miles away, another woman's life ended in a similarly horrific manner. Leila Welsh was an ambitious, educated, popular, and socially connected beauty. Though raised modestly on a prairie farm, she was heiress to her Kansas City family's status and wealth. On a winter morning in 1941, Leila's butchered body was found in her bedroom bearing the marks of unspeakable trauma. One victim faded into obscurity. The other became notorious. Both had in common a killer whose sadistic mind was a labyrinth of dark secrets. 
   
   
   
  Eli Frankel reveals a key fact about the Black Dahlia crime scene that leads inexorably to the stunning identification of a criminal who was at the same time amateurish and fiendish, skilled and lucky, sophisticated and brutish. Drawing on documents, law enforcement files, interviews, the victims' own letters, trial transcripts, military records, and more, this true-crime saga puts together the missing pieces of a legendary puzzle.
