by Workman Publishing (Author), Kim Daly (Compiled by)

It's a total crime wave: A mini encyclopedia of true crime, packed with stories of killers, cons, survivors, forensics and more!

More than 200 stories of killers, con artists, master thieves, and brazen kidnappers--and strong survivors, detectives, forensic breakthroughs, and legal minds on all sides of the action. In other words, a mini-encyclopedia perfect for newcomers and hard-core crime fans alike.
Here are the big names--Bundy, Manson, Berkowitz, Borden, and the Black Dahlia. The lingering mysteries--like JonBenet Ramsey and Natalie Wood. The disturbing puzzle of the Zodiac Killer. The true story behind the most lurid headline ever: "Headless Body in the Topless Bar." Plus a feast of trivia and more, including the Psychopath test, how DNA profiling began, tattoo analysis, and quizzes like "Where Did They Hide?" and "Serial Killer Trophies."
