Susan Kelly Books Overview
Until Proven Innocent
Tall, red haired Liz Connors is a former college professor turned crime writer who is expert at digging up details even the cops couldn’t find. This time she has to: her lover, Detective Lieutenant Jack Lingemann, is being held without bail on a murder charge, and all Boston is crying for his head. She enlists the help of two reporters and two cop friends to dig up information that lies buried in the annals of Cambridge history. Her investigation discovers links between a series of violent attacks on women, a dishonest real estate tycoon, and a tragic fire in a tenement; all are clues to the real killer’s identity. Until Proven Innocent is a galvanizing puzzle and a delight.
And Soon I’ll Come to Kill You
Freelance writer Liz Connors is receiving anonymous hate mail from some psycho. Someone she knows? When she receives the first death threat, Liz thinks it’s somebody’s idea of a sick joke. When they start coming weekly and grow steadily more graphic, she admits she’s a little unnerved. Still, it’s not until someone breaks into her apartment and leaves behind a mutilated doll, which looks a lot like Liz, that she and her cop boyfriend, Jack Lingemann, decide the joke’s gone far enough. But little do they know how close to home the danger lurks. Liz is in for a big shock when she finally confronts her would be murderer!
Out of the Darkness
Recession has visited Boston freelance writer Liz Connors with a vengeance: the magazine that is her main source of income has folded, and her financial future is looking grim. So Liz jumps at the chance when the enormously successful true crime author Griffin Marcus hires her to research the grisly, ritualistic slayings of seven local women. Although the cops are convinced they’ve nailed the serial killer, Liz is not so sure. As Liz’s relationship with Griffin begins to turn into something more than she planned, her long time affair with Lt. Jack Lingemann begins to falter. Caught between these two men, Liz must sort out her own life as she sifts through clues to the real killer of the women.
The Boston Stranglers
The only definitive book on this sensational crime, now newly updated, ‘The Boston Stranglers‘ investigates Albert DeSalvo’s confession to the eleven brutal murders he didn’t commit and exposes the real killers. The headlines screamed ‘DeSalvo is the strangler!’ when repeat sex offender Albert DeSalvo confessed to the brutal murders of eleven different women. Beginning in June, 1962, the Boston, Massachusetts area was terrorized for 18 months by an elusive serial killer who sexually assaulted and strangled to death a succession of female victims. Boasting that he was the killer, and that he had raped an additional 2,000 women, DeSalvo’s horrific story became the subject of a bestselling book and major Hollywood movie. It was all a scam; a monstrous hoax DeSalvo was not The Boston Strangler. In the only definitive book on this subject, author Susan Kelly’s detailed investigation shows us the true DeSalvo a twisted pathological liar whose hunger for celebrity made him confess to crimes he did not commit. Kelly also proves that the stranglings were committed by at least eight different slayers. She even names the lead suspects some of whom may have been getting away with murder for decades. Here is the true crime account that created a national sensation, leading to the reopening of this bizarre case and the rewriting of true crime history. Newly updated for this edition, ‘The Boston Stranglers‘ finally tells the explosive truth all of America has been waiting for.
