Great True Crime Books!

Post Reply New Topic

As some of you already know, my mom loves reading a good crime novel whenever she can get her hands on one.

But what are some great true crime books that you consider the best ever written?

I may buy my mom a true crime book as a Christmas present.

All recommendations will be considered and appreciated!

Thanks!

My Dark Places, by James Ellroy.

It's half autobiography by crime fiction author, James Ellroy, part recounting of his mother's murder when he was a boy, how it altered his life forever, and how he and a retired LA police detective tried to solve the cold case.
