In Volume #2: Holiday Hell we chronicle criminals who used the occasion of a festive holiday to plan and execute the most vile crimes, often as a way to deliberately increase the heartbreak of their evil intentions.
Read how detectives and forensic science identified, tracked down, and convicted these remorseless offenders, many of whom you will have never heard about before.
Volume #2 includes . . .
• The Carnation Christmas Murders: A husband and wife living in a small town developed animosity toward her family over petty grievances. While some of us could relate to that situation, none of us would think the solution is multiple homicides on Christmas Eve.
• The Halloween Killer: A 9-year-old girl in Wisconsin went trick or treating in 1973. She went to the door of a neighbor she knew and when he opened it she stepped inside his house. He closed the door behind her.
• Missing Valentine: A stay-at-home dad began to resent his wife’s success and frequent business trips, so he seduced their 19-year-old nanny. His wife’s last Valentine’s Day ended with trash bags and a machine shop.
