American Serial Killers: Profiles Behind Stolen Lives

This edition profiles and documents some of America's most infamous serial killers and unsolved murders. More pointedly, in most of the chapters, you are transported to the actual killing site where the homicides occurred. The updated editions are also important to keep the victims' legacies fresh and significant to a society often numbed by the frequency of violence and sensationalist murders. The private trauma remains fresh to the immediate victim's families, friends and diverse relationships. The ghosts of recollection are prevalent, searing and painful. They never recede. For the innocent victims of homicides, their stilled voices are silenced, but their identities and legacies should never be forgotten.
