New York Times bestselling author and Edgar Award-winner Daniel Stashower returns with American Demon, a historical true crime starring legendary lawman Eliot Ness.
Boston had its Strangler. California had the Zodiac Killer. And in the depths of the Great Depression, Cleveland had the Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run. On September 5th, 1934, a young beachcomber made a gruesome discovery on the shores of Cleveland's Lake Erie: the lower half of a female torso, neatly severed at the waist. The victim, dubbed "The Lady of the Lake," was only the first of a butcher's dozen. Over the next four years, twelve more bodies would be scattered across the city. The bodies were dismembered with surgical precision and drained of blood. Some were beheaded while still alive. Terror gripped the city. Amid the growing uproar, Cleveland's besieged mayor turned to his newly-appointed director of public safety: Eliot Ness. Ness had come to Cleveland fresh from his headline-grabbing exploits in Chicago, where he and his band of "Untouchables" led the frontline assault on Al Capone's bootlegging empire. Now he would confront a case that would redefine his storied career. Award-winning author Daniel Stashower shines a fresh light on one of the most notorious puzzles in the annals of crime, and uncovers the gripping story of Ness's hunt for a sadistic killer who was as brilliant as he was cool and composed, a mastermind who was able to hide in plain sight. American Demon reconstructs this ultimate battle of wits between a hero and a madman.When it comes to open our eyes nothing escapes the scrutiny of this person called Cazekiel.

At first I was skeptical about a channeled book. It was slow reading in the beginning for me. Then about half way I started reading information about our history, which prompted me towardsa better history curriculum for my children. I realized that many things he had said was true, some shockingly so, and backed up by decent researchers in other areas. We are constantly not told many things about our origins, history and...

This book and the first one in the series contain alot of information that is fascinating, foreboding, and much of it probably hard to swallow for many. I loved reading it, and I was a little uncertain of what to make of some of it. If you don't mind being introduced into a completely alternative version of earth history and involvement in the universe, then there's lots of wonderfull spiritual teachings you will be able to...

I'm not going to swallow it all, but I think Becoming God II is an interesting cult classic. It is however the stuff that should stay on AM radios, being played late at night.....
