3.0 out of 5 stars
Outdated but Interesting, January 19, 2012
This review is from: Wanted for Murder (Paperback)
First published in 1990, this book consists of profile and case histories of 36 murderers who, at the time of publication, were still at large. The case histories themselves are concise and well-written and should be interesting to both fans of true crime and aspiring crime fiction writers looking for some real-life inspiration for some fictional mayhem. Needless to say, a lot of the more interesting fugitives features in this book (like murderous policeman Gregory Jon Webb and escape artist Theresa Grosso) have since be captured but a few of the people profiled in this book (like mobster Leo Khoury, jewel thief Donald Perkins, and Leslie Arnold, who was a teenager when he murdered his parents in 1958) remain at large after all these years.
