True Crime in Cook County: Stories of Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem in America's Second City

Chicago has always lived in two worlds: the city of bright lights and ambition, and the shadow city of crime and corruption. True Crime in Cook County takes you on a gripping journey through more than a century of the county's most infamous cases.

???? Inside you'll discover:

The St. Valentine's Day Massacre (1929) that defined gangster-era Chicago. The shocking Our Lady of the Angels School Fire (1958) where 92 children and 3 nuns lost their lives. The Brown's Chicken Massacre (1993) that horrified the suburbs and stunned the nation. The heartbreaking murder of Tyshawn Lee (2015), a child targeted in a gang feud. The Laquan McDonald shooting (2014) that changed how Chicago polices itself. And more than 35 other true crime cases that shaped the identity of Cook County.

True crime is never just about crime. It's about people, families, and communities forever changed.

Step into the shadows of Cook County's history and discover the stories that still echo today.
