Daher beginne ich alle meine True-Crime-Bücher mit einem kurzen Warnhinweis. Die meisten Nachrichtenartikel und Fernsehsendungen über wahre Verbrechen klammern die abscheulichen Details der wirklich schrecklichen Verbrechen aus. In meinen Büchern beschönige ich die Tatsachen jedoch nicht, egal wie widerlich sie auch sein mögen. Ich versuche, meinen Lesern eine klare und genaue Beschreibung zu geben, wie verschlagen die Mörder in Wirklichkeit waren. Ich gebe mein Bestes, um nichts auszulassen. Die Geschichten in diesen Büchern sind nichts für zartbesaitete Menschen.

Wenn Sie die vorherigen Bände der Reihe True Crime Case Histories gelesen haben, wissen Sie, dass ich gerne mit einer kurzen Warnung beginne. Die in diesem Buch enthaltenen Geschichten sind wirklich abscheulich und schockierend. Sie sind nichts für zartbesaitete Menschen. In vielen Fernsehsendungen über wahre Verbrechen und in Nachrichtenartikeln werden die grausamen Details oft ausgelassen, weil sie für den Durchschnittszuschauer oder -leser zu viel sein könnten. In meinen Büchern versuche ich, keine Details zu verbergen, egal wie bösartig sie auch sein mögen.
