About this ebook

Despite a decline in the number of murders in the United States since the 1960s, thousands go unsolved each year. 

As of 2013, the solve rate was at an all-time low at only 65 percent of the total committed. 

The 15 murders profiled in this book were committed between 1958 and 2014. The oldest of the set involves the bizarre murder of Pearl Eaton, one of the famous Ziegfeld Follies Girls of the 1920s. From the beginning, the crime had no leads or suspects and remains among the coldest of the 15 unsolved crimes. 

The most recent – the murder of four members of the McStay family found buried in the California desert in November 2013 – is under active investigation.

I thoroughly enjoyed the 15 stories within the book, it's not a long book however there is the perfect balance of information and length of each so you don't feel rushed or that you are missing out. Some a brutal and others are head scratching in regards to the what or why and they all have you shaking your head. I really do hope that DNA will continue to help solve some of these and I did have to chuckle about the Golden State Killer having now been caught since this was published, but it also goes to show what can change within a short time due to technology!! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
