Great thread, Lisa, thanks for starting it.

I am 1st on these wishlist True Crime books -

The Fatal Gift of Beauty: The Trials of Amanda Knox :: Nina Burleigh -- no other wishers

Love Me or Else: The True Story of a Handsome Pastor, a Fatal Jealousy, and the Murder that Rocked a Small Town :: Lynn Olanoff, Colin McEvoy

The Millionaire's Wife: The True Story of a Real Estate Tycoon, his Beautiful Young Mistress, and a Marriage that Ended in Murder :: Cathy Scott

Portrait of a Monster: Joran van der Sloot, a Murder in Peru, and the Natalee Holloway Mystery :: Lisa Pulitzer, Cole Thompson

A Socialite Scorned: The Murder of the Tucson High-Roller :: Kerrie Droban

Wealthy Men Only: The True Story of a Lonely Millionaire, a Gorgeous Younger Woman, and the Love Triangle that Ended in Murder :: Stella Sands

Valentine's Day 2012 will mark the 5th anniversary of the murder of Tara Grant by her husband, Steven. I live only 15 minutes from where they lived and the crime took place. After watching the husband day after day on TV, and some of the accounts as they happened I still get wrapped up in any books involved with that crime.  If you haven't read  Limb from Limb :: Melissa Ann Preddy, George Hunter , you may be interested in getting on its wishlist and there are 0 wishers right now.

If you haven't read Seven Days of Rage, The Deadly Crime Spree of the Craiglist Killer, you can order that one here.  I read that book in two days and am still amazed  that his fiance had no idea what he was doing on the side.
