Wie schon bei den beiden vorangegangenen Bänden von True Crime Case Histories möchte ich mit einem kurzen Wort der Warnung beginnen. Die meisten Nachrichtenartikel und Fernsehsendungen über wahre Verbrechen überfliegen die klebrigen Details wirklich grausamer Verbrechen. In meinen Büchern beschönige ich die Fakten nicht, egal wie schrecklich sie auch sein mögen. Ich versuche, meinen Lesern eine klare und genaue Beschreibung zu geben, wie wahnsinnig die Mörder wirklich waren. Ich tue mein Bestes, um nichts auszulassen. Die in diesen Büchern enthaltenen Geschichten sind nichts für Zartbesaitete.

Wahres Verbrechen ist nicht jedermanns Sache. Aber wenn Sie dieses Buch in Ihren Händen halten, wissen Sie das wohl bereits. Ein echter Kriminalfall ist nicht mit einer CSI-Folge zu vergleichen. Sogar Dokumentationen über wahre Verbrechen im Fernsehen können über die heiklen Details hinwegsehen. Das Genre des „Wahren Verbrechen“ kann für viele Menschen beunruhigend sein. Ich tue jedoch mein Bestes, um in meinen Büchern keine Details auszulassen.
