After oil was discovered beneath their land, the Osage rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. One of her relatives was shot. Another was poisoned. And it was just the beginning, as more and more Osage were dying under mysterious circumstances, and many of those who dared to investigate the killings were themselves murdered. As the death toll rose, the newly created FBI took up the case, and the young director, J. Edgar Hoover, turned to a former Texas Ranger named Tom White to try to unravel the mystery. White put together an undercover team, including a Native American agent who infiltrated the region, and together with the Osage began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history.

Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time From the Modern Library’s new set of beautifully repackaged hardcover classics by Truman Capote—also available are Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Other Voices, Other Rooms (in one volume), Portraits and Observations, and The Complete Stories Truman Capote’s masterpiece, In Cold Blood, created a sensation when it was first published, serially, in The New Yorker in 1965. The intensively researched, atmospheric narrative of the lives of the Clutter family of Holcomb, Kansas, and of the two men, Richard Eugene Hickock and Perry Edward Smith, who brutally killed them on the night of November 15, 1959, is the seminal work of the “new journalism.” Perry Smith is one of the great dark characters of American literature, full of contradictory emotions. “I thought he was a very nice gentleman,” he says of Herb Clutter. “Soft-spoken. I thought so right up to the moment I cut his throat.” Told in chapters that alternate between the Clutter household and the approach of Smith and Hickock in their black Chevrolet, then between the investigation of the case and the killers’ flight, Capote’s account is so detailed that the reader comes to feel almost like a participant in the events.

The Mystery To This Book ...is to make you smile, laugh, or just shake your head. Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, 'and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice 'without pictures or conversations?' And then the murders began. Alice's Adventures In Wonderland, By Lewis Carroll It all started with a small quote from Marc Laidlaw who created a nice approach to revisiting first lines of books. His 3 March 2017 tweet said, "The first line of almost any story can be improved by making sure the second line is, 'And then the murders began.'" This book was a test of that idea. I took the first lines of the top 100 downloaded books from Gutenberg.org, in order, and applied that concept. The idea does work in almost all cases to create something humorous (depending on your idea of what's funny.) To be fair, in many cases, a better effect is often achieved once the scene is set. Especially when you are already familiar with the author's style. Romances seem to work best. Plays are awkward. You can try this for yourself as you go - take only the first line and add "And then the murders began." The results are more often than not incredibly hilarious. Sometimes merely droll. And even non-fiction can be as surprising. Or, just read along with my excerpts and see which one you like better. I give you, then, two books in one.

Sorry to Disrupt the Peace by Patty Yumi Cottrell Pdf
Helen Moran is thirty-two years old, single, childless, college-educated, and partially employed as a guardian of troubled young people in New York. She’s accepting a delivery from IKEA in her shared studio apartment when her uncle calls to break the news: Helen’s adoptive brother is dead. According to the internet, there are six possible reasons why her brother might have killed himself. But Helen knows better: she knows that six reasons is only shorthand for the abyss. Helen also knows that she alone is qualified to launch a serious investigation into his death, so she purchases a one-way ticket to Milwaukee.

Introduction to Boston Strangler by Gilad James, PhD Pdf
The Boston Strangler was a notorious serial killer who terrorized Boston, Massachusetts, in the early 1960s. The killer was responsible for the deaths of at least 13 women between June 1962 and January 1964, and possibly more. The victims ranged in age from 19 to 85, and all were strangled with articles of their own clothing. The killer also sexually assaulted some of his victims. The media coverage of the killings and the investigation into the perpetrator became a cultural phenomenon at the time. The case inspired numerous books, movies, and television shows, and it remains one of the most infamous and mysterious murder cases in American history. The identity of the Boston Strangler was the subject of much speculation and investigation for years after the killings. Several men were considered to be suspects, but it was ultimately Albert DeSalvo who confessed to the murders in 1965. DeSalvo was a handyman in the Boston area who had a history of sexual assaults and other crimes. He claimed that he had committed the murders during a series of burglaries, but his confession was later disputed by some experts who argued that he may not have been the true killer. The mystery of the Boston Strangler continues to captivate true crime enthusiasts and historians alike, and the case remains one of the most intriguing and disturbing murder mysteries of the 20th century.
