Fifth Book of the True Crime Case Histories Series (2020)
Those of you familiar with my previous books in the True Crime Case Histories series know that I always start off with a quick word of warning: real true crime isn’t for everyone. Television shows and newspaper articles often gloss over the shocking details because it may be too grisly for the average viewer or reader.
When researching these stories, I commonly use actual police reports, court documents, and first-hand descriptions. Some of the details can be disconcerting. I do my best to not leave out any of the details in my books, no matter how depraved they may be. My intent is not to shock, but to show precisely how twisted the mind of a killer can be.
That being said, if you are overly squeamish, this may not be the book for you. If you’re okay with it, then let’s proceed.
Volume 5 features: longer stories, more photos, a bonus chapter, and an online appendix with additional photos, videos, and documents. Volume Five features twelve of the most incomprehensible stories of the last fifty years.
True Crime Case Histories, Vol. 5: 12 Disturbing True Crime Stories Reviews
-
Pretty interesting collection of not really well known true crime cases!
-
Ich hatte bereits ein Buch gelesen, was mich gut unterhalten konnte. So war es auch mit diesem Band. Der Autor schildert sachlich und nicht zu langweilig 12 spannende True Crime Fälle aus aller Welt. Diese sind mal extrem schockierend aber manchmal auch nicht.
Wenn man schwache Nerven hat, ist ein Teil der Fälle nichts für einige Leser.
Die Fälle sind mit Bildern illustriert so hat man ein Bild von Täter und den Opfern. Der Schreibstil lässt sich angenehm lesen. Da ich im 6. Band leichte Fehler entdeckt hatte, ist mir in diesem Buch nicht einer aufgefallen.
Zusammenfassend bekommt das Buch 4 von 5 Sterne. eine tolle Lektüre für alle die sich für True Crime interessieren. -
Unexpected
I've been enjoying Mr. Neal's books since he began his true crime books. But this book surprised me in a couple ways. One was location of the crime. All of murders killings did not occur in the United States.The darkness that was a part of some of the cases.The poor victims and their maniacal murders were quite disturbing.I deliberately did not read the the Introduction because I wanted to be surprised when I read each story. The Introduction gives a little preview of things to come and I prefer to begin reading not knowing what's coming.
Well Jason Neal did not disappoint. Each book he writes gets better. The true vs written about in the fifth volume of his True Crime Case Histories dealt with stories I hadn't read before. This is always good because so many authors recycle the same cases over and over again. So if you like true crime you need to pick up a copy of this book! -
Terrific anthology series
The books in this series are quick TC cases and they are very well-written and the later versions contain nice color photos. The cases the author covers tend to be more obscure and deal with crimes in different countries and eras. I'm really glad I stumbled on this author. If you like Robert Keller or Les MacDonald you will probably love this series. On to book six! -
Quite an interesting book
Very interesting, well written and very informative. I love this author's writing style because he holds the reader's attention, and he really does his research in order to present to the reader the most accurate case information. He is without a doubt one of my favorites. -
Variety Of Crime
Jason has picked some interesting cases in this volume of true crime stories. From cases where justice failed the public to some where the authority never stopped until their fugitive was caught.
Jason brings these cases to the forefront as if you were on the case yourself.
Highly recommended for a wild ride. -
A very disturbing collection of true crime stories. The author makes the disclaimer that they are disturbing, and advises readers not to read them if they don't think they'll cope. I found them well written and absorbing even though the subject matter was pretty gruesome. Not one I recommend but if you are interested in the psychology of killers, then this book is very good.

Very Scary!
It amazes me what people are capable of doing to each other. The stories in this volume are horrible and evil but everyone I read teaches me something new. I pray that we do not see another killer like, Bundy, Ridgeway, Dahmer... again, but a person with a smaller body count is just as ugly and evil. They just got caught earlier. -
Not the best of the series
This is an odd book. The stories are interesting, but written in a very flat manner. The tales were just summations without any emotional thrust. Surprisingly, the best story in the book is the last one, which is a reprint from the previous book, volume 4. -
Great!
I really enjoyed this book! If anything, when it comes to the detailing I would like to have more about the crimes of possible. The writing flows very nicely and the chapters are compiled well. Thank you! -
Interesting book with obscure cases. Needs better editing.
-
Another great book. I like that he has cases that other books to not include.
-
Sicko’s
The author did a good job providing a clear and detailed accounting of these sicko crimes. What’s wrong with people?? -
Very disturbing.
