The Linda Wolfe Collection — Linda Wolfe
Five torn-from-the-headlines true crime books from an Edgar Awardâ€"nominated author and “one of our best reporters” (John Leonard).
Linda Wolfe delves deep into the crimes that defy explanation -- and the twisted minds of those who commit them. In these five books, she combines masterful storytelling with brilliant psychological insight.
Wasted: On an August night in 1986, Jennifer Levin left a Manhattan bar with Robert Chambers. The next morning, her strangled, battered body was found in Central Park. This New York Times Notable Book provides a “fascinating, horrifying, and heart-breaking” account of the so-called Preppie Murder, the crime that shocked a city and a nation (Ann Rule).
The Professor and the Prostitute: The chilling case of a college professor who bludgeoned to death the prostitute he loved -- plus eight other true crimes, including the bizarre story of the Marcus brothers, twin gynecologists, that inspired the David Cronenberg film Dead Ringers.
Double Life: The riveting story of how the chief judge of the New York State Court of Appeals was brought down by his sexual obsession with a stunning socialite.
The Murder of Dr. Chapman: Wolfe skillfully weaves court transcripts, love letters, and period recollections into an edge-of-your-seat historical thriller about a notorious crime of passion that rocked preâ€"Civil War America.
Love Me to Death: Wolfe embarks on a search for the serial killer who murdered her friend in this “intriguing insider's look into the convoluted mind of a killer” (The Plain Dealer).
