Omschrijving

"Fantastically detailed, thoroughly documented, frightening and fascinating. Ms. Davis's account of the Axeman is likely to be the final word on the subject." Keven McQueen, author of Gothic and Strange True Tales of the South

"Fantastically detailed, thoroughly documented, frightening and fascinating. Ms. Davis's account of the Axeman is likely to be the final word on the subject." Keven McQueen, author of Gothic and Strange True Tales of the South

"Tackling one of the most perplexing serial killer cases in the annals of American homicide, Miriam Davis has produced an exemplary work of historical true crime. Exhaustively researched, crisply written, and as briskly paced as any fictional thriller, it is sure to stand as the definitive work on the subject. Harold Schechter, author of The Serial Killer Files

"No American murders are stranger or more mysterious than those committed by the Axeman of New Orleans. And none are more desperately in need of the attentions of a first-rate writer and historian. Thankfully, Miriam Davis is both those things. Her account is original, revelatoryand also very exciting." Mike Dash, author of The First Family and Satan's Circus

"A riveting story of a serial-killer investigation in a time long before modern-day investigative techniques, or even the term 'serial killer,' was invented." Booklist , starred review

"Miriam Davis leaves no stone unturned in her study of a classic unsolved serial muder case, pursuing leads where no researcher has gone before and revealing previously unreported crimes, victims, and suspects. Those who think they 'know it all' about the Axeman are in for a thrilling surprise." Michael Newton, author of The Encyclopedia of Serial Killers

"A superb read for those who love historical true crime writing, New Orleans history, and real-life tales of serial killers." Library Journal

"That's how it reads: a page-turner of violence and skillful research." The New Orleans Advocate

"This book is distinctive in the canon of Axeman literature Robert Tallant is a legend among New Orleans history and literature lovers, so it's no small hurdle Davis clears when she discredits some of his assertions" and "the book reads like a modern-day thriller." Louisiana Life
