 y&amp\;r=months&amp\;n=6&amp\;t=Books+and+Authors&amp\;term=true+crime">th
 ird Monday of every month</a>. This will be a great way to discover new an
 d classic True Crime writing.</p>\n<p>In November we will read "Furious Ho
 urs" by Casey Cep.</p>\n<p class="heading5">From Amazon.com:</p>\n<p>Rever
 end Willie Maxwell was a rural preacher accused of murdering five of his f
 amily members for insurance money in the 1970s. With the help of a savvy l
 awyer\, he escaped justice for years until a relative shot him dead at the
  funeral of his last victim. Despite hundreds of witnesses\, Maxwell&rsquo
 \;s murderer was acquitted&mdash\;thanks to the same attorney who had prev
 iously defended the Reverend.<br />&nbsp\;<br />Sitting in the audience du
 ring the vigilante&rsquo\;s trial was Harper Lee\, who had traveled from N
 ew York City to her native Alabama with the idea of writing her own&nbsp\;
 In Cold Blood\,&nbsp\;the true-crime classic she had helped her friend Tru
 man Capote research seventeen years earlier. Lee spent a year in town repo
 rting\, and many more years working on her own version of the case.</p>\n<
 p>Now Casey Cep brings this story to life\, from the shocking murders to t
 he courtroom drama to the racial politics of the Deep South. At the same t
 ime\, she offers a deeply moving portrait of one of the country&rsquo\;s m
 ost beloved writers and her struggle with fame\, success\, and the mystery
  of artistic creativity.<br />Read less</p>\n<hr />\n<p>View and print <a
