Since the shooting, Georgia feels more vulnerable. “I didn’t realize how easy it is to die. How deep hate runs. How do you thank the deputies who walked into the line of fire?”

“I’m not over what he did,” said Promethea. During the interview, the phone range twice, but Promethea didn’t answer. She said the calls are from another Greek American, who believes any school in Montana  must be a “hick” college and she ought to attend a “real” university.

“He calls me three times a day,” Promethea said, adding that she has begun to wonder if she is a “lunatic magnet.”

Dark Deeds-Volume Two contains 12 new true crime cases about serial killers, stalkers and domestic homicides.Once again, Susan Fleet has researched, written and compiled detailed accounts of twelve true crime cases: four serial killers, four stalkers and four domestic homicides. Chapter 13 involves a case that defies categorization. Some examples …

.
• Serial killers: The Candy Man loves little boys to death.
• Stalkers: Arthur Bremer and John Hinkley Jr. stalk Presidents.
• Domestic Homicide: A rabbi pays a man to murder his wife.

No one knows how many serial killers are roaming the United States. Some experts believe they murder as many as 180 people each year. Others say the count may be much higher because some serial killers hide the bodies and they’re never found. Stalkers far outnumber serial killers. Each year they threaten and intimidate 3.4 million people in America. Although stalkers may profess love for the objects of their obsession, many seriously injure or kill their “love object.”

Domestic homicide is rampant in the United States. Women and children rarely kill family members; men commit the majority of domestic homicides. Some are crimes of passion. Others are carefully calculated. Why bother with a divorce when you can kill your spouse?

Here’s what Arthur Smukler, MD, psychiatrist and author of Chasing Backwards, a psychological mystery, said about Dark Deeds, Volume One: “In Dark Deeds, Susan Fleet immerses us in the world of serial killers, stalkers, and domestic homicides. An inveterate fiction enthusiast, I found her real-life tales obsessively haunting and educational.”

  1. I bet you’re having a great time with this one! I’d love to read it but need to finsih her other books first.
    I’ll be posting my 56 later when I get home from work. Still debating which book I’ll use.

  2. Yeah, no. This is exactly the kind of thing I absolutely cannot read. I start jumping at every noise, and freaking out when I see movement out of the corner of my eye (which is really bad b/c CATS). BUT, glad you’re enjoying it. This girl is too big of a chicken 😉

    • There are not many book genres that I won’t read. My favorite is thriller/suspense fiction because of where the authors can take me. I do find that people can be down right evil and I am glad there are more good people than bad.

    • Thanks Braine. Susan has a great website too, if you love to hear about things like this. She also has some really great suspense/thriller novels.

    • As you can see, this is Book 2, but if you like these, check out her cool website and her novels.

    • Some people seem to draw weird and different people to them. Who knows why. Thanks for stopping by Topaz. Nice to meet new people.

  3. I forgot to mention that if you are interested in the book, stop back on Monday for a freebie!!
