Filicide: the act of a parent killing their own children, ages one year and up. This new release will sadden and anger you. Virtually everyday we are hearing a similar case on the news. Most acts are committed by the mother. The one parent who should be bonded to her child at all cost.

Large Print Serial Killers Anthology

Effectively immediately, the LARGE print of the Serial Killers Anthology, although almost twice the size, is the same price as the regular print. $13.97. This is unheard of in the publishing industry but I feel readers should not be penalized because of eye-sight issues do to aging or anything else. Of course we make precious little on the large print but it's not all about the glorified dollar to me and my team.

Autographed copy of Parents Who Killed Their Children.

Coming April 30, 2014 but available for pre-order in eBook and paperbackWarning: Content contains sensitive material that may not be suitable for all readers.
    
Filicide   is the intended act of a parent killing his or her own child . The act is also regarded as an offence since it amounts to murder. To most of society, filicide appears very unnatural and inhumane, yet a small percentage of parents exist who do kill their offspring. Many researchers and scholars have associated these tragedies as being caused by domestic violence.
  
The stories that follow go against everything we have been taught and have learned. We perceive mothers to be the epitome of care and support, yet mankind teaches us cruel lessons.
    
Inside the book: FilicideThe Causes of FilicideAndrea YatesDarlie RoutierSusan EubanksLianne SmithAlan BristolJeffrey MacDonaldDeanna LaneySusan SmithTonya ThomasDiane DownsEpilogue"Is there anything more reprehensible than filicide--that is, the intended act of a parent killing his or her own child? In "Parents Who Killed Their Children," the award-winning true crime author RJ Parker shines a powerful light on this dark and sordid phenomenon. First, Parker offers a number of possible psychological and environmental causes (or at least correlates) of filicide. Then he presents ten shocking, real life case histories of parents who murdered their children. The result is a book that is bound to make you rethink the absolute sanctity of motherhood and reflect on why some mothers do indeed "eat their young." This is a powerful read and another hard-hitting, compelling entry by RJ Parker."
Dr. Scott Bonn, Ph.D, criminologist, professor and author of the forthcoming "Why We Love Serial Killers" October 2014 from Skyhorse Press.

Endorsement for new release book April 30

"Acclaimed true crime author, RJ Parker, has a knack for collecting high-profile cases under specific themes. This collection about parents who kill their children provides a fast-paced, gripping overview of how things can go horribly wrong in once-loving families. From Andrea Yates to Jeffrey MacDonald to Susan Smith, Parker reports on the stunning case details and suggests reasons why the parental bond can get so twisted.  The updates at the end of each chapter add a lot, since popular media rarely follows up. An important reference for true crime readers."----Dr. Katherine Ramsland, Ph.D., bestselling author of "The Mind of a Murderer" and "The Ivy League Killer."http://bit.ly/pwktc
