The Killer in the Attic: and More True Tales of Crime and Disaster from Cleveland's Past 1st edition
John Stark Bellamy II
?Fascinating and yes entertaining . . . often in a bizarre way that leaves the reader feeling guilty for being so entertained.? ? Medina County Gazette
The fourth volume in John Stark Bellamy?s classic Cleveland crime and disaster series features 26 more gruesome, horrible, tragic, and despicable?but true?tales, including:
? Love-crazed Clark Hill, who warmed up his teenage girlfriend with an overdose of Spanish Fly in her milk shake;
? The chilling Cuyahoga River scow disaster, in which 16 clinging, drowning men fought so desperately to stay afloat that they dragged each other to the dark bottom of the river;
? Doomed workmen Patrick Toolis and Patrick Cleary, buried alive in the very concrete that became Cleveland?s celebrated Terminal Tower;
? Not-so-friendly Dorothy Kaplan, who deposited shards of glass in her neighbors? milk in hopes of helping slow the ?noisy? couple down a bit;
? Mafia legend Shondor Birns, whose high-profile life of crime came to an explosive end when he started up his Lincoln Continental one fine day;
And other detailed and compelling accounts of the unspeakable.
