Welcome to Litsy!

Ed Gein was one of the most twisted and disturbed killers in the 20th century. The abuse he endured at home set the violent path he would take, shocking the world with his crimes. TW/CW for this graphic novel.

First time picking up a true crime book (till now it‘s only been documentaries & podcasts for me). Not sure if I like reading it as much as watching/listening, but overall a pretty enjoyable read.

Ooooh, this was such a good thriller! The premise is like Strangers on a Train (2 people meet who have both lost loved ones and want to kill the one responsible, and they agree to swap murders) but it goes way beyond that. It had me shocked on several occasions! I also liked Cavanagh‘s writing and would read more by him. I‘ve recommended this to a few customers and we all agree that it‘s a very strong thriller. (Zoe is not scared, though!)

Catching up on my #AuldLangSpine recs from…2024! 😆 Thank you, @Deblovestoread - this one was outstanding. I‘d been happy to see Rebecca Wait on your list because she seems so beloved here on Litsy. I now see why. Loved the writing, and these characters will stay with me.

And surprisingly found this one on one of my bookshelves. I remember reading it a long, long time ago and finding it fascinating. Gonna re-read.

Same.

The sixth case for Det Sergeant Washington Poe & analyst Tilly Bradshaw sees them investigate the murder of a man found tied to a tree & stoned to death. How does his death tie into the murder of 3 members of the same family 15 years earlier?

The case is already in the past in this book & the reader hears about it through Poe relating the story to a therapist. Yes, this case was so dark it gave Poe PTSD, (continued)
