50 STATES OF MURDER
An Atlas of American Crime
From true crime master Harold Schechter, author of Murderabilia, comes a unique atlas of America's homicidal history.
Filled with hundreds of darkly fascinating tales of murderous mayhem, 50 States of Murder is a chilling work of storytelling and an authoritative survey of the United States' homicidal history. Master true crime author Harold Schechter explores each state's most grizzly, gruesome, and notorious murders that have passed into regional lore, from Iowa's Cornfield Killer to the Texarkana Moonlight Murders to the Beauty School Barbarian of Arizona. Presented in a photo-filled, atlas-like format, this bloodcurdling journey into the dark heart of American murder will please any ravenous true crime obsessive.
Harold Schechter, a two-time Edgar nominee, has published more than 30 true crime titles, including five 100K+ copy bestsellers. His most recent work, Maniac: The Bath School Disaster and the Birth of the Modern Mass Killer, just published (March 9, 2021). He has taught literature and myth criticism for more than 40 years at Queens College/CUNY and is a murderabilia collector himself.
