Herefordshire Murders
Herefordshire Murders brings together twenty-eight murderous tales, some which were little known outside the county and others which made national headlines. Herefordshire was home to one of Britain's most infamous murderers, Major Herbert Rowse Armstrong, who, in 1921, poisoned his wife and attempted to poison a fellow solicitor in Hay-on-Wye. However, the county has also experienced many lesser known murders. They include the case of two-year-old Walter Frederick Steers, brutally killed in Little Hereford in 1891; eighty-seven-year-old Phillip Ballard, who died at the hands of two would-be burglars in Tupsley in 1887; Jane Haywood, murdered by her husband near Leominster in 1903; and the shooting of two sisters at Burghill Court, near Hereford, by their butler in 1926. Nicola Sly's carefully researched and enthralling text will appeal to everyone interested in the shady side of Herefordshire's history.

Murderers In California
Murder is very practical, really. It doesn't take too much time or effort once you're used to it. You don't have to wait for the paycheck; you take it. You don't have to look for pleasure; you take it. The people who populate these pages have found all the shadows in the sun-drenched state of California. They have leaped from nameless victim to nameless victim. Each killer's only challenge was finding a spot to hide the leftover bones.

But as long as their victims had wallets and IDs, killers could make a living if they cho...
