As idyllic as Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley may be, there is a dark side: serial killers, mass murderers, outright hits,
high profile familicides and domestic homicides. In the
context of some of these incidents, forensics expert
Katherine Ramsland, along with Northampton County
Coroner Zachary Lysek, describe what it's like to be a
death investigator in the Lehigh Valley.
Murder in The Lehigh Valley introduces the reader to some
of the area's most infamous and fascinating crimes-
historical and contemporary. The authors have included a
list of unsolved murders compiled in 1999 by the
Northampton County DA. Perhaps a reader holds the
missing clue to solving one of these cases.
Murder in The Lehigh Valley is a well-researched book,
which will appeal to "true crime" fans and anyone
who is intrigued by murderers, their crimes and their
victims. You'll want to lock your doors and sleep with
the lights on!
