Yet underneath the mint juleps, oaks bearded with Spanish moss and the splendor of colonial architecture, there lurks a deadly undercurrent. This is a first-person account of an award-winning newspaper crime reporter's career, covering scores of murders in the Savannah area, including one of the bloodiest eras in the city's history: in 1985, metro Savannah earned notoriety with the nation's highest homicide rate. The author describes a wide range of crimes, including murders over a 14-year-old lover, $4 for hamburgers or a baby carriage; the grisly murder of a voodoo priest; bound corpses in the waterways and interstate body dumping grounds; the Scarecrow and \"Say Cheese\" Killers, serial killer Wade Sheffield; and many more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46446870266007,"sku":"9781476691831","price":1945.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781476691831.webp?v=1769138727","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/bloody-savannah-the-citys-most-violent-era-as-seen-by-a-crime-reporter-9781476691831","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
