I love real-life mysteries and I am hooked on shows like the First 48, Forensic files and the Investigation Discovery channel.  Someone said to check out True Crime books.  If you have any "must reads" please share.  Also if you have them on your bookshelf, please let me know and I'll order directly from you.

My start into True Crime was actually Anfe Rule's "The Stranger Beside Me" and it was about Ted Bundy. Many followed but I still think about Rule's book often.  Scott Peterson is an interesting read as well. I have it on my shelf. http://www.paperbackswap.com/Deadly-Game-Untold-Story-Scott/book/0060766123/

 

Heather do you have newly published TC ? I try not to go back too far because swapping these books back has gotten so difficult.
