Serial Killers



Bad Girls Do It!
an Encyclopedia of Female Murderers

At the time Jack the Ripper was busy killing five prostitutes in London, Jane Toppan, was charged with killing close to 100 people in Connecticut. Toppan said in court, that her ambition was to have killed more helpless people than any man or woman who has ever lived.

These 182 case histories of female multiple murderers are packed with well-researched details. You will read about nurses who kill, lethal landladies, and murderous moms. Many of them are little known, such as Rachal David, a religious fanatic who tossed her seven children off an 11th-story hotel balcony in Salt Lake City in 1978, while a screaming crowd watched from below.

Deadlier Than the Male



Final Truth:
The Autobiography of a Serial Killer

Graphic version of Donald 'Pee Wee' Gaskins life and crimes. A remarkable book that enables the reader to better understand the thoughts and emotions of a man who killed from a psychopathic need to identify with his victims through the joining of his own pain with theirs.

By far the most educational and disturbing book of it's kind that you will encounter. Nothing I can say can convey the horror of watching these events through the eyes of the killer. This one is a true gut check, and casual readers of this type of literature may not be prepared for this.Remember, you have been warned!

A compelling read for both the curious layman and the concerned professional.

The F.B.I. has estimated that there may be as many as 500 serial killers at large in this country, yet until now no one has made such a bold challenge to existing theories about the nature of the phenomenon. Norris also provides remedies to control its growth.
