I finally found a book about the Villisca axe murders of 1912 where 2 adults and 6 children were killed.It is Call (Villisca The True Account Of The Unsolved 1912 Mass Murder) By Roy Marshall I posted about this crime a while back but there was no book written at that time when I found this I thought I would let anyone interested know. I also highly recommend The Pied Piper Of Tuscon it is an older crime but the book is really interesting he puts tin cans in the heel of his boots to make himself look taller and he wore dark foundation make up. I think it was the mid 1900 hundreds well worth the read.
