Stepping into the shadows of the giant

Truman Capote's book is the only true crime title that ever makes it into any of the the "100 best books" lists.

A new true crime book takes place in the same bucolic setting as the book widely considered the masterpiece of true crime. A COLD-BLOODED BUSINESS (Skyhorse Publishing, 978-1-6023-9477-2540, $24.95) is billed as a true crime thriller by New York Times reporter Marek Fuchs. The book grew out of a series of reports Fuchs did for the NY Times from 2004-2007, on a 20-year-old cold case in Olathe, Kansas. The case was solved recently.

Here is a link to a clip of the author being interviewed - by the killer's defense attorney, no less, and it's famous attorney Mickey Sherman.
