I read a lot of non-fiction but I’m not familiar with thriller non-fiction. Would you please give a couple of examples?
In Cold Blood by Capote
Anything by Ann Rule.
Following ?
Susan Orlean’s new book is excellent. The Library Book about the fire in the LA Public library in 1986. I also really liked The Stranger in The Woods and Murder, Me our, Mea Culpa both by Michael Finkel- both excellent and interesting
Well not like thriller but books by Simon Sebag Montefiore. Well if you have read books like Jerusalem or Romanovs by he, you can find that there can happen almost everything when we speak for history and what kind of time was. Or try Lirio Abbate’s book, I think the name is something like women of Mafia or something like that.
Devil in the White City
Yes- a good one
Ann Rule
Operation Broken Reed
Killers of the Flower Moon
