Why do they call Adelaide, Australia the City of Corpses ? How many people did Agatha Christie kill with her pen? And what did Edgar Allen Poe, America's first murder mystery writer, really die of? There's nothing like a little murder to capture a reader's attention. And in this random shooting of a trivia book, readers find all the gumshoes, guns, and gore they need to explore the sinister side of human nature: the worst villains of all time - from Hannibal Lechter to Charles Manson; the bloody truth about forensics; weaponry to die for; private dicks, dangerous dames, and dubious characters; the most puzzling unsolved mysteries; and, who's really gotten away with murder. From amateur sleuths to serial killers, this murderous miscellany of crime - both real and imagined - is just the thing for a dark and stormy night.
