The Crimescape series is a collection of short true crime works by Anthony Bruno, published over several years beginning in 2011. Each entry focuses on a specific case or criminal type, ranging from serial killers to organized crime and crimes with a strong sense of place — the Garden of Good and Evil, the streets of Roppongi, Florence’s Monster case.

The works are concise and well-researched, written by someone who has spent decades thinking about how and why people commit crimes. For readers who prefer their true crime in shorter installments, this collection offers a wide variety of cases in a manageable format.
