A Father's Fight
Jeff Green stands in front of the Evansville Civic Center holding a sign in his left hand and a picture in the other. The sign reads, "MURDER COVER-UP, OFFICER INVOLVED, LEAVE NO CHILD BEHIND" in simple black bubble letters on a piece of white poster board. The picture is of a beautiful young woman, makeup done and her hair brushed to perfection. He is very soft-spoken, his words enunciated with care, his story heartbreaking.

HOW DO YOU PREVENT EXPLOITATION WHEN FICTIONALIZING REAL CRIME?
Character studies with a crime hook are my favourite types of thrillers. They are narratives about people's deeds, responses, behaviours, and feelings against the backdrop of a gripping mystery. They focus on characters first and crime second. Great examples include books like The Girls by Emma Cline, which features a Manson-like cult; Whisper Network by Chandler Baker, which features a #MeToo-like storyline; and Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll, which features a Columbine-like shooting.

A 19th-century sex cult's founding in upstate New York
John Humphrey Noyes was a shy and reserved young man before he discovered religion and founded his own utopian, open-marriage cult. When he was younger, John Humphrey Noyes was so agonisingly shy that he could hardly stand to be around women. He recorded in his diary, "I could face a battery of cannon with less trepidation than a room full of ladies with whom I was unfamiliar." He was the fourth of nine children born in 1811 on the frontier of Vermont to former congressman John Noyes Sr. and flame-haired Polly Hayes, whose nephew, the frail, underweight Rutherford B. Hayes, would go on to become the nation's nineteenth president. John Humphrey was a bright student who entered Dartmouth College at the age of fifteen.

THE REAL-LIFE MYSTERY BEHIND EDGAR ALLAN POE'S "THE BLACK CAT"
The bones were discovered by George Stebbins while he was tearing down a stone wall in the cellar of his house in Northfield, Massachusetts. The bones of the head, spine, arms, and legs all emerged first. The fact that the remains were crammed into a space less than three feet square suggests that the body had either been dismembered or had decomposed to a skeleton before being buried. Had Stebbins, who ran a ferry service on the Connecticut River close to the state's border with Vermont and New Hampshire, disturbed an unmarked grave? Or did the discovery have a more sinister justification?

Rafael Caro Quintero, a drug lord from Mexico, was born on October 24, 1952. He co-founded the Guadalajara Cartel, which has since disintegrated, with Miguel Angel Félix Gallardo and other drug dealers in the late 1970s. He is the brother of Miguel Caro Quintero, a fellow drug dealer who founded and oversaw the defunct Sonora Cartel. Caro Quintero established the Guadalajara Cartel in the 1970s and collaborated with Gallardo, Ernesto Fonseca Carrillo, and Pedro Avilés Pérez to transport large amounts of marijuana from Mexico to the United States. In 1985, he was responsible for the abduction of Enrique "Kiki" Camarena of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), as well as Camarena's pilot Alfredo Zavala Avelar, American author John Clay Walker, and dental student Alberto Radelat. Caro Quintero fled to Costa Rica after the killings but was later apprehended and extradited back to Mexico, where he was given a 40-year murder sentence.
