Virginia Dare - The First Child of America Who Disappeared Without a Trace

Thomas Loki

Summary

Born in 1587 on Roanoke Island, Virginia Dare was the first English child born in the New World. She should have been the symbol of a bright future, a new generation in a land full of promise. But just three years later, she and the entire Roanoke colony had vanished without a single clue left behind.
 
 
 
No bodies were ever found. No messages explained what had happened. Only a single word—CROATOAN—was carved into a wooden post, deepening the mystery instead of solving it. Did the colonists join a Native American tribe, or were they lost to something far more sinister?
 
 
 
For centuries, Virginia Dare has remained an eerie legend, a ghostly presence in American history. This book explores the myths, the theories, and the unanswered question: What really happened to Virginia Dare and the Lost Colony of Roanoke?

Tell-Tale Texas - Investigations...

E.R. Bills

Uncover the suppressed testimony of the Lone Star State's uncomfortable past.Tinseltown almost always gets Texas wrong. The "Searchers" never did that much searching, the "Giants" were hardly ever big in terms of character and The Last Picture Show was just the beginning of a disturbing reveal. As acclaimed writer Stephen Harrigan suggests, the Lone Star State was not exactly a Big, Wonderful Thing, and for too many Texans, nothing was ever "Awright, Awright, Awright." A Black civil rights champion was assassinated in 1976, and the incident was buried. A "Cowtown Catcher in the Rye" was published in 1940, and the country club set made it disappear. And the war machines of Hitler and Mussolini were perfected with Texas oil during the Spanish Civil War. Author E.R. Bills challenges his proud neighbors, earnestly asking them to take a hard look at their past and examine their own historical amnesia, cultural fragility and fierce denial.

The Strange Death of David Kelly

Norman Baker

"Anyone can commit a murder, but it takes an artist to commit a suicide." – Old KGB saying
The high-profile death of government weapons inspector Dr David Kelly twenty-one years ago, amid the tumult of Britain's controversial invasion of Iraq, plunged the New Labour government into crisis and led to the resignation of the BBC's director general. An informal inquiry chaired by Lord Hutton into the circumstances surrounding Kelly's death cleared the government of wrongdoing but was widely dismissed as a whitewash.
The Strange Death of David Kelly argues that neither the medical evidence nor David Kelly's state of mind and personality supported the verdict of suicide.
Analysing the official process instigated after Kelly's death, putting the entire episode into its political context and scrutinising the actions of the government in launching the Iraq War, this new edition of the instant bestseller is fully updated to include the latest evidence and theories surrounding this most mysterious and political of deaths.

Serial Killers - Delving into...

Coral Nunez

Serial killers have long fascinated and horrified society, their crimes leaving an indelible mark on history. But what exactly defines a serial killer? Unlike one-time murderers, serial killers commit multiple homicides over a period of time, often with psychological gratification as a primary motive. The FBI defines a serial killer as someone who has murdered at least two or more victims in separate events, with a cooling-off period in between. This distinguishes them from mass murderers, who kill multiple people in a single event, and spree killers, who commit consecutive murders without a pause.
Serial killers are often categorized based on their methods, motives, and psychological traits. Some are highly organized, meticulously planning their crimes, selecting their victims carefully, and covering their tracks with great precision. Others are disorganized, acting impulsively and leaving behind chaotic crime scenes. Additionally, their motives vary widely—some kill for power and control, others for financial gain, and some for what they believe to be a higher purpose. There are also those driven by deep-seated psychological disorders, including psychopathy and severe delusions.
Despite common portrayals in movies and books, serial killers are not always the lone, brooding figures that pop culture suggests. Many lead seemingly normal lives, blending into society with jobs, families, and social circles. This ability to hide in plain sight makes them particularly dangerous and difficult to identify. Some, like Ted Bundy, were known for their charm and intelligence, while others, such as Jeffrey Dahmer, displayed deeply disturbing psychological tendencies that went unnoticed for years.
