Murder in Paradise
Pulitzer, Lisa
ISBN: 0-312-98444-8
St. Martin's True Crime Classics 2003
12mo - 6¾" - 7¾" Tall Paperback FROM THE PUBLISHER On January 15, 2000, the bruised body of thirty-four-year-old Lois McMillan, a Connecticut artist vacationing in the British Virgin Islands, was discovered draped across the rocks of an inlet where she had apparently drowned in the Caribbean waves. Local authorities on the little paradise of Tortola quickly confirmed that it was no accident. The police immediately found their suspects-four young, rich American tourists. Within twenty-four hours, the men were arrested for murder and went from a life of carefree luxury to cold jail cells. Each had an alibi. None of them had a motive. And there was no direct evidence linking any of them to Lois's death. Did authorities even have the right men? Was it a rush to judgment-a desperate attempt to save Tortola's reputation for peace and safety-or were these men hiding a terrible crime. A twisting tale of swift island justice that was just beginning. So was the intricate puzzle of the lives of the four men in question, and the truth of what really happened during Lois McMillen's tragic final hours. SYNOPSIS January 15, 2000: the bruised body of thirty-four-year-old Lois McMillan, a Connecticut artist vacationing in the British Virgin Islands, was discovered draped across the rocks of an inlet where she had apparently drowned. The police immediately found their suspects--four young, rich American tourists. Each had an alibi. None of them had a motive. And there was no direct evidence linking any of them to Lois's death.

Out of Bounds : Inside the NBA’s Culture of Rape, Violence, and Crime
Benedict, Jeff
ISBN: 0-06-072604-0
Perennial. U.S.A. 2004
8vo - 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Paperback From Publishers Weekly In what is bound to be one of the more controversial sports books of this year, Benedict (Pros and Cons: The Criminals Who Play in the NFL) applies his superb investigative reporting skills to the "dark, sinister side" of dozens of NBA players, painstakingly detailing criminal behavior ranging from drug abuse and domestic violence to armed robbery and rape. Using criminal background checks on nearly 200 NBA players; thousands of pages of trial transcripts and other legal documents; and more than 400 interviews with police officers, attorneys, players, victims and witnesses, Benedict tells hard stories, some well known and others discussed in depth for the first time here. Benedict also has no fear of naming some big names--including all-stars Patrick Ewing, Gary Payton, Glenn Robinson and Damon Stoudamire--to detail what he calls "the rash of lawlessness that is currently gripping the NBA." Benedict exposes how life as a touring player in the NBA offers vast amounts of free time and sex, encouraging criminal behavior and leading to a warped perception of women and their availability, as well as producing an environment "hot-wired" to produce incidents of sexual assault. He explains how the "see-no-evil approach" of NBA teams and their armies of lawyers fosters the perception in players that they are above the law, leading to outrageous behavior toward law-enforcement officials. As well, he explores the role that agents play in keeping criminally accused players from accountability. This is an excellent book that proves its point that life in the NBA is "out of control and absolutely demands close scrutiny." Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Book Description They dazzle us with spectacular athletic feats. They generate millions of dollars for the NBA and their teams. They inspire adulation. But underneath all the glitz, money, and alley-oops is a rash of lawlessness that is gripping the NBA. Based on a first-of-its-kind investigation into the criminal histories of 177 players from the 2001-2002 season, Out of Bounds shows that an alarming four out of every ten NBA players have a police record involving a serious crime. With graphic accounts of physical and sexual violence and other outrageous conduct by players, Out of Bounds takes readers inside the culture that encourages such criminal behavior and exposes the hidden yet critically vital role that lawyers, agents, and fame play in insulating criminally accused players from accountability. Jeff Benedict, an expert on athletes and crime, draws on exhaustive research, including criminal-background checks, documents from law-enforcement agencies, courts, and private attorneys, and more than 400 interviews, naming more than 250 people, including many prominent NBA players. Out of Bounds will forever change how we look at the NBA and its stars who live above the law. Near Fine

Through the Window: The Terrifying True Story of Cross-Country Killer Tommy Lynn Sells
Fanning, Diane
ISBN: 0-312-98525-8
St. Martin's True Crime U.S.A. 2003
12mo - 6¾" - 7¾" Tall Paperback Book Description 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. 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. Near Fine

The Insider: The FBI’s Undercover "Wiseguy" Goes Public
Goddard, Donald
ISBN: 0-09-921181-5
Arrow Books Australia 1993
12mo - 6¾" - 7¾" Tall Paperback Synopsis Billy Breen was the FBI's secret weapon. After 25 years of surrepticious observing, reporting, manoeuvring and manipulating, Breen surfaced to tell his story to Donald Goddard, journalist and ex-editor of "The New York Times". An ex-cop who has done time for robbery and armed robbery (to protect his family and his cover), Breen could enter any low-life bar in any state and hook into the local criminal network before ordering his second drink. Despite reservations about the FBI, his work for them made him a crime-busting legend, and he gained his satisfaction not from financial reward or fame, but just from seeing the mob heads roll - hundreds of them.
