1.Too Beautiful a Day to Die ~ Joyce Egginton (author) : Laurie Dann was a marginal person who had no sense of her inner self and as a result depended on others, especially her husband, to define her.

Well I would suppose so since a madwoman has just killed or severely injured four second graders ... 344 pgs & 8 photo's
2. Careless Whispers ~ Carlton Stowers : Kenneth Franks, Jill Montgomery, and Raylene Rice were three ordinary teenagers who had the misfortune to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and who paid for this mistake with their young lives.I have read two other books written by Carlton Stowers, and I am amazed at the empathy he feels towards the victims of violent crime and their families; while not outwardly doing so, his stories are a constant reminder that a homicide leaves many victims other than the dead person.A gripping, frightening and suspenseful book, this is a must read, and the pages within literally shriek "The horror! The horror!" And when you finish it, you'll feel like shrieking this phrase too ... 464 pgs & 8 photo's NOTE: Both these books are a little worn NO missing or torn pages !
