2. THE MICHIGAN MURDERS by EDWARD KEYES.  SEVEN FRIGHTFUL SLAYINGS.......THE POLICE WITHOUT A CLUE......THE UNBEARABLY GRIPPING TRUE STORY. 

The place:  Washtenaw County, Michigan. 

The time:  a hot July night in 1967.  A nineteen-year-old co-ed from Eastern Michigan University inexplicably disappears without a trace.  After a month, her decomposing remains are uncovered in a field outside Ypsilanti - murdered with almost inhuman brutality.

One year later, the fearsomely violated corpse of a second co-ed is discovered in a wooded area of Ann Arbor.  In March of 1969, a third girl is gruesomely murdered; four days later, a fourth; three weeks later, a fifth; early in June a sixth - each in the same unbelievably savage fashion, and in each case without a single clue.  Then in late July, a seventh brutalized victim! 

Seven frightful slayings.  A diabolical killer (or killers) stalking the area.  And six separate police agencies are seemingly unable to put an end to the horror.  Desperation presses in on the frustrated hunters; neighbor suspects neighbor; vigilante groups fester; outraged public officials demand a swift accounting.  But against whom?  Until at last, almost by accident - a break..............This is the gripping FACTUAL ACCOUNT of how terror reigned in a small Midwestern community - a TRUE STORY with all the incredible suspense of master fiction:  the mystery, the uncertain probing, the excitement of the police as they finally close in on one suspect, and the hurtling race down the road to a solution.  A superb thriller in the powerful traditon of IN COLD BLOOD and THE BOSTON STRANGLER. Hardcover, illustrated dust jacket. Reader's Digest Press 1976.  Its a used library book with clear mylar cover in good reading condition.
