12/26/75 - a wrongful conviction that let the Visalia Ransacker go free

Tony Reid

$17.95

The book is a re-investigation into the Exeter CA murder of Donna Jo Richmond on December 26, 1975. Investigators follow evidence back to Visalia Ransacker, then north to Sacramento, in pursuit of the East Area Rapist now known as Joseph James DeAngelo. The book gives all the evidence to show that prosecutorial and police misconduct led to the wrongful conviction of Oscar Clifton, and the destruction of the evidence prevented efforts to prove his actual innocence.

Simple, Safe & Secret

Eve Carson

$17.95

Joan Webster was last seen alive at Logan Airport in December 1981. Her remains were found when a woman walking her dog stumbled across her shattered skull in 1990. Joan's sister in law, Eve Carson, was the only person in the family not related by blood at the time of the murder. Eve has spent decades tracking down the truth about what happened to Joan, and what she discovered was a botched investigation and a flawed trial of the wrong (albeit very bad) suspect, a story that may be darker than Joan's murder itself.

Mysteries in the Music

Jim Berkenstadt

$17.95

Mysteries in the Music: Case Closed examines the secrets, myths, legends, hoaxes, conspiracies, and the wildly inexplicable events that are such an intriguing part of rock and roll history. Jim Berkenstadt, aka The Rock And Roll Detective®, has spent decades researching the players behind these famous soundtracks and the mysteries hidden within the music itself.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The Rock And Roll Detective®, Strikes Again!
Rock and Roll was built on its own crazy mythology, but Jim knows the true stories are likely to be even wilder than the myths. I read this book with great pleasure and fascination and I have no doubt that you will too!”

Cold Wrath

Barney Terrell

$15.50

Jim Dunham murdered his entire family (with the exception of his three-week-old son) one California spring evening in 1896, along with some of the farm helpers who worked his in-law's farm. Dunham was never caught, and sightings of him from Texas to Florida were reported for years afterward. Cold Wrath looks at the case with modern eyes, in an attempt to do the impossible: discover what went on in the mind of a man 115 years ago that would make him murder those closest to him.
