True crime is stranger than fiction.
Criminology embraces the nuts and bolts of physical evidence, timelines, and logistics, but intangible components connect on multiple levels beyond the finite and measurable. They are the realm of the occult.
As a sequel to the ground-breaking analysis of the physical evidence in Richard Speck and the Eight Nurses: Deconstructing A Mass Murder, author B.D. Salerno offers insights into the metaphysical and occult aspects of the tragic mass murder of eight student nurses.
The author first presents an astrological analysis of the murders, followed by a riveting exposé of the numbers, dates, and occult symbols that surface frequently throughout the official narrative of this shocking crime. All of them reveal the involvement of a hidden hand - a dark cult who left behind their calling card in numbers, dates, and ritual imagery.
BD Salerno attended Rutgers University in New Jersey and also obtained professional secondary education in New York City. Her eclectic interests include alternative healing, true crime, music, and astrology.
