Overview

Horrifying, engaging, and meticulously researched, this fourth volume of the Murder Casebook series includes 12 more shocking true crime cases that highlight the unpredictability, brutality, and diversity of murder.

Praise for the series:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This author had me hooked from the first page of volume one. Very fascinating cases brought to life. Highly recommend - Amazon Reviewer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This extensively researched true crime collection offers a gripping journey into the depths of human behaviour, expertly crafted and destined to leave a lasting impression on all who dare to delve into its pages - a must for fans of the true crime genre - Goodreads Reviewer

In this volume, Prash Ganendran presents 12 more carefully selected true crime stories from around the world, which will leave you speechless at how the lives of previously happy, carefree people can be extinguished in an instant on the whims of savage perpetrators who crave the ultimate power over other human beings. This compelling collection includes serial killers, family massacres, teenage murderers, intimidating stalking campaigns, outrageously devious plots, and a major cross-country manhunt.

The Murder Casebook series uses expressive and memorable writing paired with painstaking research to help readers come to know both the victims and the killers, recognising that they were real human beings who lived, loved, suffered, and died in their frequently too-short time on earth. Their stories are told vividly, accurately, and above all, compassionately. The settings, methods, and motives vary, with a stark contrast between the murders marked by stone-cold machinations, and those committed in the heat of a moment with impulsive disregard for the consequences, but the themes of hatred, anger, and the human capacity for darkness are always disturbingly familiar.

Find out the answers to these questions and read about many more little-known true crime stories, including a bonus thirteenth case!

About the Author

British writer and investigative researcher Prash Ganendran grew up watching old time detectives like Charlie Chan and Inspector Hornleigh solving quirky cases, and he has been captivated by true crime ever since he stumbled across a book on real life serial killer Jack the Ripper in his local library. Even now, he still enjoys a good Tintin comic and spends many happy hours watching film noir and listening to radio shows from yesteryear such as Suspense!

He began his working life as a fraud analyst before training to become a Cisco Network Engineer, which took him to some of the most notorious high security prisons in the UK, including the one housing "Suffolk Strangler" Steve Wright. In 2020, he decided to hang up his IT hat and pursue his creative interests, starting with researching, writing, and producing Prash's Murder Map, a true crime podcast examining solved and unsolved cases around the world. He then took a break from the show to write non-fiction books such as Jack the Ripper: Straight for the Jugular, I Just Wanted to Kill, and the Murder Casebook series. He also co-authored cosy Victorian whodunnit ‘The Porcelain Cat: A Detective Amarnath Mystery’ with his wife, who also writes. Prash particularly likes to tell the stories of both the victim and the killer, taking an objective approach to try to understand some of humanity's darkest moments.

In his spare time, he enjoys visiting historic sites, photography, birdwatching, and planning the perfect murder...
