This book is an astounding compilation of 50 of the world's most notorious and ruthless Serial Killers, including: Serial Killers who were captured, Serial Killings that were never solved, Female Serial Killers, and Doctors who killed their patients. Some of the more infamous cases are: Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Son of Sam, Karla Homolka, Christine Fallings, the Green River Killer, Dr. H.H. Holmes and the Zodiac. This book also includes: the Black Widows, Cannibals, Unsolved Serial Killings, and the various categories of Serial Killers as defined by the FBI. At any given time in the United States alone, there are thirty to fifty unidentified active serial killers at work constantly changing their targets and methods; however, some authorities think that number is even much higher. "RJ Parker writes the most informative and interesting books, hands down. Unsolved even gave me true crime I didn't already know about. Didn't think that was possible This author rocks " - Lori Smith (Unsolved Serial Killings) "Women Who Kill is an interesting and eclectic dossier on some of the nastiest female murderers ever. He has researched well and presented the reader with a collection of the more unusual and bizarre femme fatales than one usually finds in similar True Crime compilations." - William Cook (Women Who Kill) "As always, R.J. writes definitively and factually in Case Closed. I was amazed at all of the "big-name" serial killers who have been caught. Parker gives us a peek into the lives of serial killers ranging from Gacy to Bundy to the relatively recent discovery of the BTK killer's identity. This is great stuff, insightful and well written. For any fan of serial killers, R.J.'s work is recommended." - Carl Hose (Case Closed: Serial Killers Captured) "This book is very emotional and brilliantly written The Author brings the crimes alive in detail and in a tearful read of the reality of everyday bullying Once you start reading this book of horrors yet saddening, not only for the victims but the killers themselves, you wont want to put it down. 5 stars to the RJ Parker for having the words and courage he brings to the pages." - K.L. Rotunno (School Shootings) "This book scared me. You expect the highest of standards and integrity with doctors, but these health professional operators are killers A compelling read, chalked full of detail and hard to put down." - Orange County Weekly (Doctors Who Killed)… (más)

Very insightful look into not only the events of the tragic day, but also the pathology of the killers. Presented victims as I never knew and with great dignity.

This book is meticulously researched and composed with extraordinary compassion and insight. Kudos to R.J. Parker for taking the time and effort to present the truth as close to the bone as he could get.

So much of the information that I had heard about Columbine was included in this story. The wealth of additional information put it all into perspective - what we learned from the media is not the whole story. Very interesting to know more about the background of the boys. Such a sad story to tell, but also important to understand how and why these things can happen.

This book is very well written and I liked the way it was organized. I can see from comments here that people are very invested in the "they were bullied" line of why. I really appreciated the author bringing forth all the detail that seemed to be lost just weeks after the event.

I really recommend this book if you are looking for a good overview of the crimes. ( )
