The book is called Tommy the Killer. It is about a legendary serial killer from the 1800s that killed more than three hundred people by taking them up an old lighthouse in the woods. It takes place at Bowling Green, Kentucky. The townspeople get tired of him and kill him by burning the lighthouse down with him in it, but before he dies, he swears revenge on them and the generation to come.

Diane Fanning's Through The Window is more than an investigation into a crime spree that stunned a nation. It's an utterly terrifying plunge into the unfathomable dark mind of a serial killer, and the heart-wrenching story of the brave child who finally brought him to justice. Ten-year-old Krystal Surles watched in horror as her best friend was murdered at the hands of an intruder. Then with cold-blooded precision he brought a twelve-inch boning knife to Krystal's throat. With a single, violent slash, he severed her windpipe and left her for dead. Miraculously, she survived and would lead authorities to the arrest of 35-year-old Tommy Lynn Sells, a former truck driver, carnival worker, and cross-country drifter... He aspired to become "The Worst Serial Killer of all Time." With no apparent motive and no common pattern to his inconceivable bloodshed, the elusive Sells had carved his way across the country for two decades slaughtering women, men, transients, entire families, teenagers, and even infants with ghoulish abandon.

A mad director, off his meds, is making a movie about how he murders the producers who ruined his career. The movie is in his mind. The murders are real. Tommy Veasy, a pot-smoking homicide detective--our hero--who writes poetry to help him solve cases and ward off despair, thinks he sees a pattern in these seemingly accidental deaths. His colleagues think he's being dramatic. But the bodies keep piling up. The staff of a syndicated TV show in its tenth year, formerly an international hit but now only being aired in Montenegro and Botswana, worries about how they will maintain their Hollywood lifestyles when they become unemployable. How will the producer finance his two-hooker-a-weekend habit? How will the staff writer pay private school tuition, an underwater mortgage, tennis club dues, the housekeeper, the gardener, cable TV bills, the couples' therapist, et al.? Not a big problem: the mad director has planted a bomb in the office phone and is frantically trying to set it off. And meanwhile, a home invader keeps invading the wrong homes, to everyone's perplexity. In other words: it's just another day in paradise.

In 1976 and 1977, over the course of a thirteen-month period, two boys and two girls, ages ten through twelve, were brutally murdered in Michigan's Oakland County. Their violent deaths triggered the largest murder investigation the state had seen. In Wolf in Sheep's Clothing, Tommy McIntyre provides a compelling and detailed account of the search for the Oakland County child killer. This is a story of tragedy and grief, dead-ends and disappointments.

For 20 years, Tommy Lynn Sells killed without remorse. This horrific crime spree stunned the nation and goes beyond the typical psychopath behavior of serial killers. Some serial killers seem to have such ideal lives that it's almost impossible to understand the motivation for their crimes. Then there are killers who had such rough childhoods that it's easy to see why they turned out the way they did... Killers like Tommy Lynn Sells. Having hit the road to live his life how he wanted when he was just fourteen years old, Sells had vivid memories of the places he'd visited, such as the Grand Canyon, Vegas, and Niagara Falls but vaguely remembers his first murder. He wasn't sure who the victim was or what state the killing occurred in. He did recall that the first life he took was in self-defense, but that was never proven... Wherever it started, his murder spree would last for decades and it would cause enormous harm to his victims and their families. Scroll back up and order your copy today!

New York Times Bestseller: This in-depth account of Charles Sobhraj, the serial killer portrayed in Netflix miniseries The Serpent, is “compulsive reading” (The Plain Dealer). There was no pattern to the murders, no common thread other than the fact that the victims were all vacationers, robbed of their possessions and slain in seemingly random crimes. Authorities across three continents and a dozen nations had no idea they were all looking for same man: Charles Sobhraj, aka “The Serpent.” A handsome Frenchman of Vietnamese and Indian origin, Sobhraj targeted backpackers on the “hippie trail” between Europe and South Asia. A master of deception, he used his powerful intellect and considerable sex appeal to lure naïve travelers into a life of crime. When they threatened to turn on him, Sobhraj murdered his acolytes in cold blood. Between late 1975 and early 1976, a dozen corpses were found everywhere from the boulevards of Paris to the slopes of the Himalayas to the back alleys of Bangkok and Hong Kong. Some police experts believe the true number of Sobhraj’s victims may be more than twice that amount. Serpentine is the “grotesque, baffling, and hypnotic” true story of one of the most bizarre killing sprees in modern history (San Francisco Chronicle). Edgar Award–winning author Thomas Thompson’s mesmerizing portrait of a notorious sociopath and his helpless prey “unravels like fiction, but afterwards haunts the reader like the document it is” (The Plain Dealer, Cleveland).

The Bully Killer describes the life of Big Bull Chaney, the worst bully in Texas/New Mexico history, his upbringing and his lowlife associates who raise hell at a nightclub in El Paso called Wild Eyes. Bull Chaney started with bad genetics-his vicious parents, and began his criminal hobby of bullying in elementary school. Raised in an atmosphere of outrageous cruelty against animals, with his uncle Jeeter running an organized dog fighting ring, Big Bull Chaney grows to be close to seven feet tall and over 300 pounds. He inherits a beer distributorship from his father who bought it with pirated funds, and who is unexpectedly killed while choking an outlaw biker at Wild Eyes. Bull has many successes in bullying other men; however, his luck turns bad when, at an international festival in El Paso, he confronts a giant Viking strongman and a Kung Fu expert from Asia, and he realizes that either of these men could easily destroy him! His ego having suffered major damage, he resolves to find someone that very day on whom he can take out his rage and wrath. While still at the festival, he sees Nikos Diamantopoulos, a 14-year old boy, dressed in an ethnic Greek costume from a closed era, something like a Scottish kilt. The costume infuriates Bull who, with his cowboy, blue jeans, and monster truck mentality, vows to catch Nikos and deal him a severe lesson. Bull finds Nikos walking home through a dark neighborhood and sets two of his killer dogs on the boy, who is badly injured, yet saved from death by his brave dog Rocket, who arrived and diverted the violence to himself. Bull leaves Nikos atop a fire ant mound, worsening his injuries. By means of a fortunate chain of events, a high tech medicine man, Ray Singing Fire, who has boyhood debts to two Greeks, enters the picture and vows to right things for Nikos. Unfortunately for Big Bull Chaney, Singing Fire has many of the same Kung Fu skills as Chang Tien Ming, one of the men who made Bull back away at the El Paso festival. Singing Fire corners Bull at Wild Eyes and, in front of his own criminal associates, gives Bull a gut wrenching lesson about stinging insects, feeling this appropriate retribution for the many fire ant stings Nikos took. Additionally, Singing Fire does major damage to Bull's beer distributorship, causing a steep decline in sales through a clandestine mailing to its customers. Now the angriest man on earth, Bull plans revenge on the Indian medicine man, but cannot locate him. An effort to find Nikos also failed. In frustration, Bull journeys to Eagle Pass, Texas, to visit uncle Jeeter about the problem, who then consults with the Chaney family attorney, Wade Blankenship. The lawyer calls a Mafia phone number, and arranges to bring in a Greek speaking gangster to act as a spy to locate Nikos. With the confidence of Nikos clergyman gained, the spy locates Nikos, who is then kidnapped, along with his doctor and his parents. A video of the victims being menaced by Bull's killer dogs is sent to the Greek Orthodox priest, who then contacts Singing Fire at his reclusive New Mexico home. The medicine man must devise a way to save the victims from Big Bull Chaney, who plans to execute them by dog mauling at a secretive dog fighting site in remote West Texas, in full view of around 100 criminals invited from all over the United States. The climax of chapter 5 illustrates that those who are wantonly violent usually encounter someone they cannot face, as Bull dies under the claws and teeth of the medicine man's wolverine, a weapon he desperately tries to avoid using. Chapter 6 depicts Bull suffering in hell, the fate unquestionably awaiting all bullies, but it also details the restoration of Nikos to a normal life through regenerative medicine; portrays his dog Rocket at the gates of heaven; and his new companion dog, Rocket II, graciously arranged for his by the veterinarian, Ed Landerholme, who was able to salva
