24 Midnight In Mexico: A Reporter's Journey Through A Country's Descent into Darkness While many of the best true crime books focus on only one case, Alfredo Corchado's Midnight in Mexico explores the collapse of a nation. The celebrated journalist goes on a journey through Mexico to investigate the governmental corruption and vicious power struggle that has resulted in thousands of deaths and disappearances.
21 The Red Parts: A Memoir The Red Parts is unique among true crime books because it is part memoir, and part exploration of the dehumanizing effect of the trial system.

14 My Dark Places Eschewing the journalistic separation found in many of the best true crime books, James Ellroy's My Dark Places follows the acclaimed fiction writer as he investigates the long-unsolved murder of his mother. The personal nature of the story makes it especially biting, and Ellroy's fiction prose style is unique among the typically stoic true crime writers.
