They?d saved everything... there was even a copy of the ?certificate of living existence?, that nadir of bureaucratic imbecility... What was the ?protocol?, to use a word dear to government offices? Did one simply write on a sheet of paper something like: ?I, the undersigned, Salvo Montalbano, hereby declare myself to be in existence?, sign it, & turn it in to the appointed clerk? A young Don Juan is found murdered in front of his apartment building early one morning, & an elderly couple is reported missing after an excursion to the ancient site of Tindari ? two seemingly unrelated cases for Inspector Montalbano to solve amid the daily complications of life at Vig?ta police headquarters. But when Montalbano discovers that the couple & the murdered young man lived in the same building, his investigation stumbles onto Sicily's brutal ? New Mafia?, which leads him down a path more evil & more far-reaching than any he has been down before. Praise for Andrea Camilleri: ?A joy to read? The Times ? This savagely funny police procedural proves that sardonic laughter is a sound that translates ever so smoothly into English? New York Times ...

Treason, witchcraft, robbery & murder, just a few of the crimes that could incur the penalty of death in the early days of Britain's justice system. Domestic violence was rife & alcohol was often the fuel that culminated in the murders of a wife or sweetheart. DNA, blood grouping & fingerpinting are now used to place a person at the scene of a crime. Before the use of forensics, evidence was often circumstantial & there is no doubt that in some cases an innocent person would have been hanged. ...

Executioner By Chris Carter, Crime Thrillers Book

Inside a Los Angeles church, on the altar steps, lies the blood-soaked, decapitated body of a priest. Carefully positioned, legs stretched out, arms crossed over the chest, the most horrifying thing of all is that the priest's head has been replaced by that of a dog. Later, the forensic team discover that, on the victim's chest, the figure 3 has been scrawled in blood. At first, Detective Robert Hunter believes that this is a ritualistic killing. But as more bodies surface, he is forced to reassess. All the victims died in the way they feared the most. Their worst nightmares have literally come true. But how could the killer have known? And what links these apparently random victims? Hunter finds himself on the trail of an elusive and sadistic killer, somone who apparently has
the power to read his victims' minds. Someone who can sense what scares his victims the most. Someone who will stop at nothing to achieve his twisted aim. This book has 472 pages and is 17.8 x 11.3 x 3.3 cms
