TRUE CRIME ARCHIVES: VOLUME TWO - NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE
Some killers are caught. Some are caught too late. And some - the ones who installed our alarms, led our churches, and coached our children - were never caught at all.
True Crime Archives: Volume Two continues the series with fifty more real, documented cases and five new themes, taking the reader deeper into the mechanics of criminal investigation: its breakthroughs, its catastrophic failures, and the cases that defeated every tool science could bring to bear.
A Leicestershire detective invites five thousand men to give their DNA in the world's first genetic dragnet - while the real killer arranges for a colleague to take the test in his name. The Golden State Killer gardens quietly in a Sacramento suburb for forty years until a genealogy website finds him. Three teenagers are convicted of ritual murder in West Memphis on the basis of a coerced confession and a community's fear. A Montana hermit evades the FBI for seventeen years, caught only when his brother recognises his writing in a published manifesto. Three survivors know exactly who the San Francisco Doodler is - and will not say his name in 1975, because they cannot afford to.
Fifty cases. Five themes. The questions continue.
Part of the True Crime Archives series. Volume One - The Dark Side of the World - is also available.
