The Best American Crime Writing: 2002 Edition: The Year's Best True Crime Reporting

A riveting new anthology seriesâ‚¬â€œa yearâ‚¬s worth of the most powerful, the most startling, the most astute and smartest, in short, the best crime journalism.

Jean Carrolâ‚¬s â‚¬Å“The Cheerleadersâ‚¬Â from Spin: the story of how an idyllic townâ‚¬â€œthe model for Bedford Falls in Itâ‚¬s a Wonderful Lifeâ‚¬â€œwas ravaged by murders, rapes, and suicides; and David McClintickâ‚¬s â‚¬Å“Fatal Bondageâ‚¬Â from Vanity Fair: the tale of a grifter with an attraction to sado-masochistic sex and serial killing. Intriguing, entertaining, compelling reading, The Best American Crime Writing is sure to become a much-anticipated annual.
