Book excerpt: While it is not my intention to begin this book with a riddle for levity's sake, it is my intention to ask you to use your intellect from page one. You see, some murders are prompted by basic emotions that render a killer's motivation most obvious. Other murders are committed out of a need to serve a higher purpose such as personal or ideological loyalty, and/or religious martyrdom. But the Columbus Stocking Strangler murders will never rise to the elegance of such, no matter how much the perpetrators of these atrocities might insist. These graphic slayings of seven elderly white women were executed for a series of reasons that for over almost four decades have gone undecipherable and in the end, were simply part of a much larger puzzle that until now has remained hidden.So let us continue with the riddle.What is another word for Thesaurus?Thought provoking, isn't it?For how do you describe something that in essence exists only to describe everything else, but not itself? I think you would agree with me then, that sometimes there simply isn't a better word or group of words to describe a thing other than the words that originally describes it the best. The word harvest is defined as the process of gathering mature crops from the fields, to be used as provisions for a later time. In like token, reaping is the cutting of mature grains or produce for harvest, typically using a scythe, sickle or reaper. Thus, you have the reason why the title for this book could be nothing other than:LORDS OF THE HARVEST--A TRUE CRIME INVESTIGATIVE MEMOIR.This investigative memoir begins with my introduction to the murders in Columbus, Georgia in 1977, where the word harvest took on another meaning and the tools that were used to harvest these 'matured' victims will not only shock you...but lead you to other horrors, once shrouded in mystery and considered as stand-alone or disconnected serial murders, until my discovery of the key that unlocks them all.
