About the book:

A superb collection of true-crime stories—written by Texas Monthly’s legendary feature writer Skip Hollandsworth—that reminds us why America is perennially obsessed with the genre.

About the author:

Skip Hollandsworth is an award-winning journalist, a screenwriter, and an executive editor of Texas Monthly. He has won a National Magazine Award for feature writing, and his 2016 book, The Midnight Assassin, was a New York Times bestseller. He also cowrote the acclaimed screenplay Bernie with director Richard Linklater. The film was based on Hollandsworth’s 1998 Texas Monthly article “Midnight in the Garden of East Texas.” Linklater recently adapted Hollandsworth’s Texas Monthly article “Hit Man” for a 2024 feature with Glen Powell. Hollandsworth lives in Texas, where he and his wife have raised two children.

About the moderator:

Ross McCammon is the editor in chief at Texas Monthly. He was born in Houston and raised in the historic Oak Cliff section of Dallas. He graduated from the University of North Texas in Denton. Before joining Texas Monthly as deputy editor in 2023, he lived in New York, working as an editor at Esquire, GQ, Popular Mechanics, and Men’s Health. He has written for Bloomberg Businessweek, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Entrepreneur, the Wall Street Journal, and Wired, and he is the author of Works Well With Others, a book about workplace behavior and success that Nick Offerman calls “hilarious and true” and that has been translated into five languages.

By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business – you’re showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople.
