Descriere Murder in the Neighborhood: The true story of America's first recorded mass shooting - Ellen J. Green

\n \nOn 6 September 1949, twenty-eight-year-old Howard Barton Unruh shot thirteen people in less than twelve minutes on his block in East Camden, New Jersey. The shocking true story of the first recorded mass shooting in America has never been told, until now.\n \n \n\n \nThe sky was cloudless that morning when twelve-year-old Raymond Havens left his home on River Road. His grandmother had sent him to get a haircut at the barbershop across the street-where he was about to witness his neighbor and friend Howard open fire on the customers inside.\n \n \n\n \nTold through the eyes of young Raymond, who had visited Howard regularly to listen to his war stories, and the mother trying to piece together the disturbing inner workings of her son's mind, Murder in the Neighborhood uncovers the chilling true story of Howard Unruh, the quiet loner who meticulously plotted his revenge on the neighbors who shunned him and became one of America's first mass killers.\n \n \n\n \nWith Ellen's access to Howard's diaries, newly released police reports and psychiatric records alongside interviews with surviving family members, Murder in the Neighborhood is a compulsive page-turner that will have you asking-how well do we ever really know those around us? Are we ever really safe?\n \n \n\n \nA gripping untold true story that will leave your heart pounding. Perfect for fans of In Cold Blood, If You Tell and American Predator.\n \n \n\n \nAn engrossing and utterly fascinating insight into a chilling and untold part of American history... impossible to put down. Gregg Olsen, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of If You Tell\n \n \n\n
