Publisher's Summary

Unmask the real story behind America’s most infamous con man and killer.

With a history marred by wild speculation, media sensationalism, and mysteries that have puzzled historians and true-crime fans for generations, the legendary con artist and killer H. H. Holmes has a strange and sinister story to tell. From tales of a gruesome “Murder Castle”, where he would trap his victims to the string of confessions that only served to muddy the waters, Holmes’ life seems to leave us with more questions than answers.

Now, this gripping true-crime novel cuts through the hype and speculation, transporting listeners back in time to witness Holmes’ wild and turbulent story. Rich with gritty detail and drawing on authentic reports from the 1800s and beyond, this book transports listeners back in time to witness Holmes’ turbulent life firsthand. Listeners will witness Holmes’ frequent cons and scams, his numerous illicit marriages, and the wave of conspiracies sparked by his arrest and execution.

From accounts of sensationalist journalism to shoddy police and detective work, this audiobook pulls back the curtain on America’s first serial killer, offering true-crime fans and the morbidly curious a definitive examination of the facts and fiction behind this infamous con man and killer.
