In an update to one of the most astonishing crimes of the Case Files volumes, Ann Rule profiles the criminals that kill without conscience and shatters their crimes without pity. In eight stunning Case Files volumes, from A Rose for Her Grave to the #1 blockbuster Last Dance, Last Chance, Ann Rule reigns as "America's best true-crime writer" (Kirkus Reviews). Now, she updates the most astonishing cases from that acclaimed series—and presents shocking, all-new true-crime accounts—in one riveting anthology. In every explosive chapter of Without Pity, Ann Rule deepens her unrelenting exploration of the evil that lies behind the perfect facades of heartless killers...and the deadly compulsions of greed and power that shatter their outward trappings of material success. They are the admired, trusted neighbor; the affable family man; the sexy, charismatic lover; the high-achieving professional. Perhaps most frightening of all is that they are heroes in their own minds. But when someone gets in the way of their deluded dreams, they are capable of deadly acts of violence with no remorse. Analyzing the true nature of the sociopathic mind in chilling detail, Ann Rule traces the murderous crimes of seemingly ordinary men—killers who drew their unsuspecting victims into their twisted worlds with devastating consequences.

But to help her friend, and to find the real killer of a man she once adored and is now not sure she ever knew, Rebecka must relive the darkness she left behind in Kiruna, delve into a sordid conspiracy of deceit, and confront a killer whose motives are dark, wrenching, and impossible to guess. . . .

I told him to leave. He told me I was his.... The Intern Jaxson Bell has one goal: advancing his career by any means possible. Sleeping with men to further his aspirations isn't uncommon for Jaxson, and his next target is obvious-the deputy mayor. Flirting with Vane is easy because he's handsome, charming, confident, and knows exactly what Jaxson wants. It's effortless to make a deal with Vane, who's more than happy to exchange sex for a job at city hall. What Jaxson doesn't expect is the very unusual kink Vane obsesses over. The oddness should be a deal breaker, but it only has Jaxson more interested. The Deputy Mayor Vane Elwood knows exactly what Jaxson wants the moment he approaches him because, at heart, he's the same kind of ruthless man. He loves sex, and if he can get it free for the simple exchange of a job, he will. Vane anticipates a hasty exit from Jaxson as soon as he discovers Vane's secret kink. To his surprise, Jaxson not only sticks around but seems to be excited. The Right Kind of Dirty Their relationship is meant to be purely physical, but as feelings grow, Vane and Jaxson will have to decide what to do. Vane has a reputation to uphold, and Jaxson has never had a relationship. If news gets out that the deputy mayor is sleeping with his new assistant, their careers could implode. They'll need to use every trick in the book to keep each other.
