Serial Killers Case Files
Author: RJ Parker

In this riveting box set, an award-winning Canadian Author delves into the gritty, gruesome details of the most notorious serial killers to strike the United States, Canada and the UK, including the unidentified killers who may still be on the loose. The horror genre is tremendously indebted to serial killers. A listing of books and movies that... more » deal with serial killers would almost be a book in itself. Something about their twisted psychology and abhorrent acts have turned folks like John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, David Berkowitz, and Andrei Chikatilo, to name a few, into household names and media figures. In Serial Killer Case Files, true crime author RJ Parker offers four books that deal with the names above and also shine a light on killers that are not as present in popular culture but whose bloody actions are worse than any horror movie out there.

Women Who Kill takes a look at female serial killers, a demographic that's very small, but which is known for their careful planning and preferred victims: patients, babies, and husbands. Parker again offers a solid assembly of available information and digs a little bit into the history of some of the most prolific Black Widows and Angels of Death. Although there is very little information out there, seeing sisters Delfina and Maria Gonzalez -- who operated a brothel in Guanajuato, Mexico, back in '50s and are thought to be responsible for around 100 deaths. Then there's Karla Homolka, a Canadian Serial Killer who killed her own sister.

The most famous names come in Case Closed: Serial Killers Captured. The author, knowing these guys each have their own books, chose to concentrate on the stories of some of the most recognizable names in crime. Gacy, Bundy, Dahmer, Berkowitz and Chikatilo are all here and many more.

Doctors Who Killed, shines a light on the very flawed medical systems of a few countries and the way doctors can create circumstances in which death can go unpunished for a very long time, if not forever.

Unsolved Serial Killings, has information about serial killer profiling and a few descriptions that will help readers new to this kind of information understand the entire compendium. From the Axeman of New Orleans to the famous-yet-unknown Zodiac Killer, all the important murderers who were never caught are here. Parker compiled the information available and managed to steer clear of doing what eventually becomes the downfall of books like this: giving opinions and wild theories about the identity of the killers. Canadian born RJ Parker is an award-winning author of the World Book Awards (2012). He lives in Newfoundland and Ontario, Canada. Parker has two daughters, twin sons, and two grandsons. To date, RJ has donated over 1,500 books to allied troops serving overseas and to our wounded warriors recovering in Naval and Army hospitals all over the world. He also donates a large percentage of royalties to Victims of Violent Crimes. This book was previously titled Serial Killer Series
