Another volume (previously published as Bloody Sequins) in the New York Times bestselling series Notorious USA about infamous crimes in every state. Now it's Texas, where crimes are as outsized as the state. Bestselling authors Gregg Olsen and Kathryn Casey take a new look at some of the Southwest's most heinous crimes, including drag queen Cliff Youens (who went by the name Brandi West on stage), convicted of stabbing his/her girlfriend 39 times; Hurley Fontenot, a junior high school principal accused of killing his rival, the football coach, over the love of a school secretary; and Tanya Reid, the first Munchausen Syndrome By Proxy mother most Americans ever heard of.
