    Recensioner i media

    “When famous people decide to commit crimes, the sheer evil behind the scenes becomes more apparent. A fascinating read that will haunt you, that will keep you up at night.”—Aphrodite Jones, author of Cruel Sacrifice and host of the ID series, True Crime with Aphrodite Jones “Author Mitzi Szereto has done it again. Her latest book, a true crime anthology titled The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals, includes stories from top crime writers that are wonderfully researched and compelling. Take the story of a popular World Heavyweight Championship winner who, once he hooks up with his future wife, grows increasingly mad, culminating in two murders. From small towns to the Big Apple, each story is titillating, making this book a must-read. You won’t be disappointed.”—Cathy Scott, Psychology Today blogger and Los Angeles Times bestselling author of The Killing of Tupac Shakur and Murder of a Mafia Daughter “Reading these true crime stories was like being given access to a murder investigator’s secret notes. The clear, direct language used throughout serves only to heighten the gruesomeness and terror of these crimes. I highly recommend this anthology!”—Robert Kerbeck, corporate spy and author of RUSE: Lying the American Dream from Hollywood to Wall Street “The sport of watching celebrities get their comeuppance because of their own bad behavior seems to be an undying entertainment. We think of Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, scores of politicians and movie stars, while the next idol to fall is just around the corner. But you know what they say about karma. One day it just sneaks up and bites you in the ass. And, as Mitzi Szereto’s latest collection shows, it could happen to anyone, no matter how high or mighty. Sit back and enjoy this endlessly fascinating volume. And just be glad you’re not on a pedestal like they are. Or were.”—J.P. Smith, author of nine novels including his latest, The Summoning “This is a fascinating book, well written and engaging, which will appeal to true crime aficionados everywhere. Highly recommended.”—Ron Chepesiuk, bestselling author and host of the Crime Beat radio show “Mitzi Szereto has done it again. The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals brings together cases that pull back the curtain on stories from the seamier side of the entertainment world. As with Mitzi’s other true crime compilations, it is a compelling read that I could not put down.”—Mike Browne, host of the Dark Poutine podcast and author of Murder, Madness and Mayhem“Mitzi Szereto’s upcoming release, The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals, comes out on February 14th—just what your Valentine wants. Assuming your Valentine is into true crime, that is. (I’m not being snarky, I know quite a few people who’d do well to pick this up in lieu of chocolates. Or at least in addition to chocolates).”—The Irresponsible Reader“The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous and Infamous Criminals by Mitzi Szereto is the first book in the series that I have had the privilege of reading. I can say that I am now a fan.”—Readers' Favorite five-star review“New book features ’most heinous’ person in true crime.”—KOIN News Portland“This marks the seventh volume in Mitzi’s popular The Best New True Crime Stories franchise. The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Famous & Infamous Criminals contains true crime cases featuring celebrities and other public figures from around the world. As with previous books in the series, each story has been written exclusively for this collection.”—Women Talking UK
