They came from different backgrounds, but when Helen Golay and Olga Rutterschmidt met in the 1980s, they became fast friends. For decades, they made a game of engaging in petty crime-bad deals, insurance fraud, robbing wallets. But after years of dabbling in theft, they came up with a way of making their pocketbooks even fatter. They found a way to make murder pay. It was a plan out of Arsenic and Old Lace: Befriend a homeless man, place life insurance policies in his name-and then have him killed. Their scheme worked once . but then police started to notice a pattern. Helen and Olga were discovered, and in front of a court of law, their coldhearted pact to kill and cash in would finally be exposed.

SYNOPSIS: NATURE'S SCENIC WONDERLAND Amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of Yosemite National Park, four terrifying killings took place. For months, law enforcement officials were stumped b the deaths of three tourists: Carole Sund, her teenaged daughter Juli, and a family friend, Silvina Pelosso. But when they found the decapitated body and head of 26-year-old naturalist Joie Ruth Armstrong, they were led to one man: 37-year-old handyman Cary Stayner. EVIL'S DEATH CAMP Stayner was arrested at a California nudist colony and soon admitted to all four killings, claiming he'd had urges to kill women for thirty years. And Cary's twisted impulses were not the only tragedy of the Stayner family. At the age of seven, his younger brother Steven was abducted by a pedophile and forced to live with the man for seven years, until he escaped. His story was told in a TV movie called "I Know My First Name Is Steven." Steven would ultimately die in a motorcycle crash at twenty-four. MURDER AT YOSEMITE What are the odds of one family suffering such astounding tragedies? What would compel a seemingly pleasant, clean-cut man to brutally attack and gruesomely kill four innocent women? Did he act alone? Or was his a false confession? Bestselling true crime author Carlton Smith searches for the shocking answers in this fascinating account of murder and madness. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

Spicer, Jr. Senior Editor, St. Martin's True Crime Library. SYNOPSIS: "My wife's been shot! I've been shot!" Millions of television viewers heard Charles Stuart's frantic call that he made to police on his cellular phone. His beautiful wife, seven months pregnant, lay dying next to him in their BMW. Charles Stuart was seriously wounded. Stuart told police a terrifying story of an unknown assailant leaping into the car at a stoplight before shooting the couple. The outpouring of grief and sympathy for Charles Stuart came from every quarter--the media, public officials, the nation at large. But it was all a deadly hoax. Three months after the death of Carol Stuart and the son she carried in her womb, Charles Stuart discovered that police were about to arrest him for the double-murder. That night he leapt to his death in the Mystic River. In his wake he left a family in agony, a city in conflict, and an entire country asking, simply, why? What kind of monster hid behind the charming smile of Charles Stuart? Veteran journalist Ken Englade has written the first in-depth account of a murder that has fascinated the nation. He explores the questions that make the case at once so puzzling and so utterly compelling. - and - Michael: What's going to happen? Shelly: We're going to tell Mom and Dad. Michael: What are you going to tell them? Shelly: We're going to tell them we know that Chuck was involved. We're not going to tell them that he killed her. Michael: Yeah, right. Shelly: Okay. Michael: Wow. Shelly: I know, Mike. Get ready. It became apparent that Charles Stuart's terrible crime would soon be revealed. As each shocking clue surfaced, new mysteries emerged--frightening questions that demand answers before the hidden truth about that horrible night on Mission Hill can be revealed fully. Did Charles Stuart--known as "Chuck" to family and friends--actually pull the trigger, or was there in fact a third person who wielded the gun? Did Stuart leap voluntarily from Tobin Bridge to his death in the icy water below? Why have the police and the press been so unwilling to release important information about either the double murder or Stuart's alleged suicide? Murder in Boston is a relentlessly probing look at a crime that shattered two families--and stunned an entire nation. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

SYNOPSIS: THREE INNOCENT TOURISTS For pretty Ohioan Joan Rogers and her two teenaged daughters, a Florida sunset cruise was a dream come true. And even though all three were desperately afraid of the water, they were so taken with friendly boat owner Oba Chandler that they gladly accepted a ride with him on beautiful Tampa Bay. A DEADLY CHARMER Little did the naïve mom and two daughters know that behind Chandler's mask of gracious host lurked a daring and ruthless ex-con, a thief and a liar, a seductive Don Juan who used and discarded wives and children. As the sun serenely sank below the Gulf of Mexico, Chandler suddenly shut down the engines, dropped anchor.and turned into a sadistic torturer. A ONE-WAY TICKET TO TERROR AND DEATH Hog-tying and brutally raping all three, Chandler tossed them overboard--alive--with 40-pound cement blocks tied to their necks. With cruel laughter, he spoke his last words to them: "Swim for it." But the dark green waters of Tampa Bay refused to hold his monstrous secret, and after only three days, the bodies of his victims surfaced. If it hadn't been for a dedicated team of detectives and the clues provided by Chandler's neighbors, a depraved killer might have gotten away with his ghastly crime. Instead, he now paces the floors of a Florida prison awaiting his rendezvous with the electric chair. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

WITH 8 PAGES OF ALARMING PHOTOS! SYNOPSIS: A SERIAL KILLER HUNTING YOUNG GIRLS. The horribly mutilated condition of young Terri Maness's naked body held the first clue. One smart Wichita detective suspected the legal secretary's murder might be the first in a string of depraved sexual slayings. He would be right on the mark. A SPREE OF TORTURE AND MURDER. Six days later Michelle Katf was badly beaten and barely escaped with her life. Twenty-year-old Joan Butler was not so lucky. She soon disappeared without a trace.

By then the twisted thrill killer, now a desperate fugitive, was already looking for fresh victims. NOTHING COULD SATISFY HIS LUST FOR DEATH. Attractive roommates Theresa Brown and Christine Rusch were only too happy to have a handsome guy like Grissom at their Saturday night party.
