About this book

Infamous Criminals Caught in True Crime Cases

"A fascinating read that will haunt you, that will keep you up at night." ? Aphrodite Jones, author of Cruel Sacrifice and host of the ID series, True Crime with Aphrodite Jones

#1 New Release in Mass Murder Biographies & Memoirs

Actors, musicians, TV personalities, and other public figures in the spotlight aren't always who they appear to be. You might be surprised by just how many have led nefarious, double lives, and have become infamous criminals!

Power, status, and a rich lifestyle aren't barriers to criminal behavior. Yes, people from all walks of life commit crimes. But the people featured here are not your typical neighbors or subway passengers—they are household names and Hollywood stars. Get the stories behind these public figures, both contemporary and historical, who have traveled down the murky pathway toward criminal activity.

After committing their crimes, the world may have kept on turning, but their legacies as infamous criminals remain strong worldwide. This book offers a fascinating assortment of true crime cases from around the world and from various time frames. Like the previous anthologies in The Best New True Crime Stories series, this volume contains all new and original nonfiction accounts penned by international writers from across the literary spectrum, including true crime, crime fiction, and journalism.

Inside, you'll find:

  • True crime cases that would make any true crime addict scream in delightful horror
  • The stories of Hollywood stars and famous criminals who went down the wrong path
  • Encounters that feature the cases of infamous criminals like Robert Blake, Jimmy Savile, Fatty Arbuckle and more

If you enjoyed Mitzi's last book in her series, The Best New True Crime Stories: Unsolved Crimes & Mysteries, and books like American Predator, and The Family Next Door, then you'll love The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals.
