This month we will be discussing In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder and its Consequences by Truman Capote.
Summary from website: On November 15, 1959, in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues. As Truman Capote reconstructs the murder and the investigation that led to the capture, trial, and execution of the killers, he generates both mesmerizing suspense and astonishing empathy, yielding poignant insights into the nature of American violence.
