  The Real Manhunter Casebook is the captivating accompaniment to hit Sky Crime TV series The Real Manhunter, chronicling 12 of the most complex cases that former Metropolitan Police detective Colin Sutton worked on throughout his career. Colin Sutton is widely acknowledged as the most eminent Metropolitan Police detective of the last thirty years. His career was diverse, from a uniformed inspector to murder squad detective and eventually Detective Chief Inspector and it was the latter role that brought him to the public attention when he led the teams that caught serial killer Levi Bellfield and ‘Night Stalker’ Delroy Grant, cases which inspired the hit ITV dramas Manhunt, starring Martin Clunes. In this book, Sutton gives readers a glimpse into the life of a top tier police detective and revisits some of the other cases he led throughout his career, all against a backdrop of his own life. He goes into great detail about the investigations, starting from the moment the call came in right through to bringing the cases to trial, and all whilst having to deal with the pressures of being at the top. This is his story, these are his cases.

  Ohio. A suicide, no fingerprints, no identity. 
   
   
   
  In July 2002, the Eastlake police discovered a decomposed body in a modest studio apartment in Cleveland, Ohio. It appeared to be a suicide by firearm. The man was Joseph Newton Chandler III, a retiree whom neighbors and former colleagues described as quiet, secretive, and strange. But as the investigation progressed, less and less about Joseph's life and identity made sense. 
   
   
   
  In 2018, thanks to scientific advances in DNA, the man's true identity was finally discovered: Robert Ivan Nichols. A veteran with a wife and three sons, Nichols eventually left his family, telling his wife "One day you will know why." A few years later, in 1965, his family reported him missing. By 1978, he had stolen the identity of Joseph Newton Chandler III, who had been killed in a car accident at eight years old. But who was this man and why did he change his name? What secret was he trying to hide? 
   
   
   
  Thibault Raisse examines the case, exploring the many theories that have emerged, from the craziest to the most credible. Among these theories is a possible connection to the Zodiac Killer, whose murders date back to 1968 and 1969 in California.

  Mayhem on the Eno River 
  Visitors to the Eno River don't expect to encounter haunted houses, train wrecks or fun outings that turn into tragedy, but some of them have experienced just that.

Train-hopping teenagers had harrowing experiences, and a baby abandoned in a suitcase was found by a nearby farmer. Author and former Eno River State Park ranger Dave Cook details the scary side of a beloved tributary.

  Some say it was the biggest theft in American history. Maybe it was.
  The multimillion-dollar burglary at eccentric gambler LaVere Redfield's Reno mansion was an endless comedy of errors. A target who hides from cameras and gets embarrassed for his dog. A failed songwriter "mastermind" who can't keep her mouth shut. A safecracker who can't pick a lock. And a convicted killer who allows his ill-gotten gains to be stolen while his pants are down. In almost every way, the 1952 Reno Heist is a study in how not to commit a crime, which is likely why the case lives on in infamy.
  Historian Gavin Schmitt unfolds the notorious misadventures of bumbling crooks, shady casino owners and femme fatales.
