Infamous True Crimes and Trials Volume #1 (Infamous True Crimes and Trials - Ten Shocking Crimes, Trials and Punishments) Kindle Edition

3.8 out of 5 stars 47 ratings

Looking for a spine-chilling ebook on Kindle? Check out "Infamous True Crimes and Trials Volume #1", a must-read for true crime enthusiasts. This book delves into ten horrifying crimes and trials, with each story presented in three parts.

In the first part, you'll get a background and introduction to each crime, with relevant historical and modern examples of savage murders, brutal rapes, rampant corruption, and sexual intrigue. You'll be shocked by the blood, gore, and evil behavior depicted in each story. The author also explores how the general public reacted to these crimes and how the perpetrators functioned in society, luring their victims.

The second part of each story provides real case examples. For instance, you'll read about Mary Ann Cotton, also known as The Soft Soap Killer. Cotton is believed to have disposed of up to 21 people, including her own mother, three husbands, 15 children (5 of whom were her own), one of her best friends, and at least one lover.

The final section is a detailed description of an infamous trial. One such trial is that of Peter Kurten, also known as The Vampire of Dusseldorf. Kurten wasn't just a psychopath, but a walking cauldron of perverse criminality. He was a sadistic sex maniac, brutal rapist, blood-lusting vampire, murderous strangler, knife-wielding stabber, and violent hammer killer. Kurten even committed bestiality and became sexually aroused when witnessing traffic accidents. He gained sexual release from planning disasters with hundreds of victims.

If you're a fan of true crime and looking for a fascinating read, this book is perfect for you. Get ready to be horrified by the gruesome details of these infamous true crimes and trials.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Originally from the UK I moved to Thailand over 17 years ago - great food, weather and people. As for my career, well most of it is behind me now, but I've spent time in the military and traveled extensively. Although still working for a living I have plenty of spare time. It's too hot to work out as much as I used to, and I don't like alcohol enough to become an expert drinker, (although admit to enjoying the occasional cold beer or three :-)

I began writing true crime stories a few years ago and have since become totally absorbed by the subject. I hope you find it as fascinating as me and enjoy my books. www.guyhadleigh.com
