The Voodoo Cathedral Murders by Steve Hailes Pdf

Vengeance was in the humid night air of the Louisiana bayou, but it wasn't the kind Charlie Buck wanted. Before them, lit by the glowing coals of the campfire and stark light of the full moon, three men lay asleep. A fourth man, sitting with a rifle propped over his shoulder, was asleep too. Charlie glanced over at his companion, the strange Voodoo doctor he had met just before the attack. The man's black torso was bare except for the large snake curled around his neck. Despite the heat, Charlie shivered. All he wanted was to find out his father's murderer. But it was complicated. The clues had led to two places: the bayou and the cathedral in New Orleans. Guilt pointed at the priest. Charlie could not accept that. Where did Voodoo, and of all things, counterfeit money, fit with his Father's murder? His mind touched momentarily on the memory of his lost love, Rachel. She was still here too, just as beautiful as ever. But she was in love with his brother, another one of his suspects. Too many questions and not enough answers. Still, here he was. Charlie Buck drew his Colt and cocked the hammer.

Voodoo Killers by Joseph Carlson Pdf

The art of murder knows many forms, but few more harrowing than murder for reasons of ritual or the supernatural. Supposedly serving a higher cause, they are often little more than acts of self-gratifying blood-lust. Voodoo Killers chronicles the disturbing history of ritualistic killing around the world, with shocking examples of human sacrifice from past and present, voodoo hexes, sexual slavery and satanic murder. It is a history that incorporates vampires, serial killers and rapists as well as institutionalized killers such as the Aztec high priests and Spanish Inquisitors whomurdered in the name of religion. Murder does not come much worse than this – premeditated, organized, ritualized and, in the past,accepted as permissible. The Voodoo Killers stand alone in the annals of horror.

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt Pdf

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic of true crime, set in a most beguiling Southern city—now in a 30th anniversary edition with a new afterword by the author “Elegant and wicked . . . might be the first true-crime book that makes the reader want to book a bed and breakfast for an extended weekend at the scene of the crime.”—The New York Times Book Review Shots rang out in Savannah’s grandest mansion in the misty, early morning hours of May 2, 1981. Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. In this sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative, John Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman’s Card Club; the turbulent young gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the “soul of pampered self-absorption”; the uproariously funny drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young people dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience.
