Beyond the Hand of God : Lust, Seduction and Murder in Massachusetts/ by Blevins, Pamela,author.(CARDINAL)832375;
When 19-year old Mary Tirrell died from a violent mysterious illness, her family and her fiance George Hersey were greatly bereaved, but no one called for an autopsy. Death, swift and unexpected was common in the 1860s. Survivors rarely looked beyond the hand of God for the cause. But four months later when Mary's elder sister Frances also died from a similar illness, the local doctor grew suspicious and ordered an autopsy. The results proved shocking to her family and friends, and prompted an investigation that tested the powers of police and scientists to bring a killer to justice. As the investigation unfolded, authorities became aware that Frances and her sister were both murdered. But they were not the only women to die at the hand of a cunning killer. A third woman had also fallen victim, but who was the murderer and what made him kill? Beyond the Hand of God recreates a chilling scene of betrayal, murder and the remarkable efforts of police, doctors and scientists working together to bring a killer to justice

Jeffrey Dahmer : a terrifying true story of rape, murder & cannibalism / by Rosewood, Jack,author.(CARDINAL)677745;
Few serial killers in history have garnered as much attention as Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer. Although Dahmer killed seventeen young men and boys, it was not so much the number of people he killed that makes him stand out among famous serial killers, but more so the acts of depravity that he committed on the corpses of his victims. In this true crime story you will read how Dahmer transitioned from a loner to serial killer, committing numerous unnatural acts along the way such as necrophilia and cannibalism. Following in the macabre tradition of another infamous Wisconsin serial killer, Ed Gein, Jeffrey Dahmer terrorized Milwaukee for most of the 1980's until he was finally captured in 1991.
