Story4.5 out of 5 stars 14
In 1850, following a divorce and a number of encounters with the law, Boone Helm headed "Out West" to chase the Californian Gold Rush with his cousin. When his cousin pulled out at the last minute, Helm was incensed, and brutally stabbed him to death. Helm was detained in an asylum for the mentally disturbed but managed to escape. Helm continued his journey west with renewed vigour, where he opportunistically killed and consumed the flesh of adversaries and travelling companions, earning him the nickname "The Kentucky Cannibal"....

Story4 out of 5 stars 8
Will you be the same after experiencing the mind of a murderous killer? What will happen to your world view and your thought process after learning the WHY behind each horrific act? The disturbing nature of these stories often makes you question everything you thought or believed about humanity. Yet they are engaging and fascinating at the same time. We all had wicked thoughts throughout our lives. What is it that makes us different from those who act upon it? Is it that they have a stronger "why"? Were they born evil?

Ten sadistic killers. One state. Countless lives that will never be the same again. To the outside world, New Mexico is the epitome of art, culture, and pristine, picturesque landscape. For those whom have had the misfortune of bearing witness to what lies below the surface, behind the facade of majestic mountains and miles of beloved desert land, life in New Mexico will forever be jaded by the memory of heinous acts perpetrated upon those they loved.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3
First, she predicts your death. Then, you die. Usually, writhing in pain. Is she a fortune-teller or something much, much darker? Nobody tells the police, not for a long time, because, well, nobody in Chicago’s Little Warsaw wants to cross Tillie Klimek. The body count racks up as Jazz Age Chicago’s most notorious female poisoner takes down husband after husband and some other relatives while she’s at it. Few, it seems, can resist Tillie’s cooking. But is this Mrs. Bluebeard working alone?

The Psychic Poisoner . . .
Miss Tillie certainly was NOT one to play around with! Jeeez. Not many were spared from her wrath it seems. If she didn't like you...its bye bye time. For you. Lol! One after another. She didn't appear to be too concerned about raising suspicions either. I guess if they needed to go, they needed to go! And by the way, I dont think you're going to be alive next week. Ha!
I REALLY liked that this narrator had a *wonderful* accent that was SO complimentry to this story, setting and time period. It set the whole mood for me, back when times were much different.
This was a nice little cheapie book to fill in the credit gap, and quite entertaining as well. No regrets.
