"A deeply disturbing book--cool, ironical, and ferocious." --Thomas Flanagan, author of The Year of the French
For several weeks in the fall of 1977, Los Angeles was held hostage by fear as the body count of sexually violated, brutally murdered young women escalated. With increasing alarm, newspapers headlined the deeds of a serial killer they named the Hillside Strangler.
More than a year later, the mysterious disappearance of two university students near Seattle led to the arrest of a security guard--the handsome, charming, fast-talking Kenny Bianchi--and the ghastly discovery that the strangler was not one man but two.
Like Truman Capote in In Cold Blood and Norman Mailer in The Executioner's Song, Darcy O'Brien weds the narrative skill of an award-winning novelist with the detailed observations of an experienced investigator to bring the story of Bianchi and his sadistic cousin, Angelo Buono, to the page. Based on hundreds of hours of recorded testimony from one of the longest and most controversial criminal court cases in American history, The Hillside Stranglers is a true crime tour de force.

Описание: "This is the most insane fun I've ever had reading a book in my life. I called in sick so I could finish it."- T. Beckett Scotland, Film Producer, The Devil of Blue Mountain
You might know Joshua Warren from his many non-fiction books, including the bestselling USE THE FORCE: A Jedi's Guide to the Laws of Attraction. Or, you might know him from his frequent appearances on The History Channel, Discovery Channel, National Geographic Channel and SyFy. You might even have wandered into his Asheville Mystery Museum in North Carolina. Wherever you first encountered his work, one thing is for sure, you'll never have a wilder, more hilarious, page-turning ride than with Warren's foray into fiction, THE GRINGO MANIAC MURDER SPREE.
Some call this book a work of twisted humor. Others ban it as gratuitous violence. But no one can stop reading.
The Gringo Maniac Murder Spree is the wicked, fast-paced, page-turning adventure of two delusional killers rampaging the enchanted island of Puerto Rico on a conspiracy-fueled quest . . .
Savagely killing larger-than-life drug dealers . . .
And saving the world by rescuing an alien being (the most intelligent being in the universe) held captive.
Don't worry if that sounds overwhelming. It will all make perfect sense.
This R-rated story is a colorful grab-bag of UFOs, aliens, spirits, MIB, cryptids, ESP, and a kaleidoscope of inter-dimensional phantasmagoria, capped with cold-blooded wit.
Both weird, and mesmerizing, you must read it to believe it.
