Snake Avenue: The Cold Case of Ten-year-old Virginia Brooks (Colder Case)

Description

This third book in The Colder Case Series details the facts surrounding the similar murder of little Virginia Brooks in 1931. Her body was found dumped in a barren mesa near San Diego, like the five little bodies that were found in the Angeles mesa. Her cause and manner of death was similar. She was the same age and race. Her murder could have been committed by the same man, or men, that killed Nina and May Martin six years earlier and then murdered Melba and Madeline Everett and their friend Jeanette Stephens six years later. The investigators did all they could with the science available to them, and tried so hard to follow trace evidence it is now a fascinating look into the history of forensic science, including entomology and horticulture. Join the factual hunt for the most cunning serial killer of the 20th century, one who was never caught, one who was happiest when someone else was convicted of his murders. The Colder Case Series will not stop until the killer is tracked down in the last book.
