The true story behind the most infamous mass murder case ever and its perpetrator, the notorious criminal Charles Manson. On August 9th 1969, seven people were found shot, stabbed and bludgeoned to death in Los Angeles. America watched in fascinated horror as the killers were tried and convicted. But the real questions went unanswered. How did Manson make his 'family' kill for him? What made these young men and women kill again and again with no trace of remorse? Did the murders continue even after Manson's imprisonment? No matter how much you think you know about this case, this book will still shock you.

About the Author:
Review:
Actor, screenwriter and audiobook narrator, SCOTT BRICK definitely gives new meaning to a hyphenate career with credits in film, television, stage and radio. He studied both acting and writing at UCLA, spent ten years with a traveling Shakespearean company, and then went on to become a freelance writer. In 2000, Brick ventured into narrating audiobooks and quickly found himself embraced by the audio world. He’s won numerous Earphones Awards for his narrating skills, as well as Audie Awards. AudioFile Magazine named Brick “one of the fastest-rising stars in the audiobook galaxy,” and proclaimed him a Golden Voice.
"The fullest story of the Manson case anybody ever is likely to get." Wall Street Journal "A valuable book on a lurid subject...A record of savagery and official bungling." Time "Continuously fascinating .. .Bugliosi does not disappoint."

At the subsequent trial of Charles Manson and some members of his 'family' Vincent Bugliosi, whose brilliant and meticulous investigation and prosecution is the subject of this book, revealed the link between Manson's murderous thinking and the then current Beatles' song 'Helter Skelter', whose lyrics prompted Manson to order out his followers, many of them young girls, to butcher without mercy.' ***'A record of cruelty and mania unequalled in its grimness.' Sunday Times ***'A terrible but gripping document of the crazy, hippie-yippie, drug-orientated California society of the Sixties.' Daily Mail (Quote and review quotes from back wrapper). ***First impression of the first UK paperback edition. A fascinating history of the trial of the infamous cult leader Charles Manson, illustrated with some very evocative photographs from the period.
