Book two in a true crime series, written by a twenty-three-year veteran of the Houston Police Department Homicide Division. These are the cases that have stuck with the investigators who worked them for years, if not for decades. Some are a matter of pride, others are just maddening and frustrating as sin for the investigating detectives. Some were cleared quickly, others have kept investigators up at night for years. One case in this book took thirty-one years to clear. These true crime cases are written in short story form¿fast-moving and almost conversational in nature, with crimes spanning Oklahoma, Texas, and the good-old-boy Dixie South. With a few exceptions, the real names of the investigators have been used and the cities listed are correct. Contributions and screw-ups by both prosecutors and cops have also been noted. Welcome to the most interesting, human, and brutal side of life.
