Описание: Alexandria Assassin: The Parable of the Knocker is a nonfiction book about the investigation, prosecution, and trial of a notorious serial killer, Charles Severance. Severance committed his crimes in the City of Alexandria, Virginia, an affluent, historic community just miles south of Washington, D.C. Over the course of a decade, Severance ambushed three outstanding Alexandria residents in their middle-class neighborhood by knocking on their front doors in broad daylight and shooting them unexpectedly when they answered the knock. Severance was not personally acquainted with any of his victims, and instead selected his targets to revenge perceived wrongs and terrorize a community.

Описание:

This book is the first of a series in which young readers are introduced to different occupations - and potential careers - through the vehicle of a precocious preteen private investigator, Kit Dreamer. With the help of her best friend, a Meerkat given to her by her globe-trotting father, Kit is on the case. In her first case, Kit investigates whether a lemur who is suspected of stealing is actually a thief - or whether the suspicion should be turned on a different, four-legged troublemaker. Throughout the investigation, Kit is exposed to several terms that will likely be new to younger readers, terms like: court, lawyer, not guilty, and jury. Through rich illustrations, Kit's unusual world of talking large animals - which may or may not be a dreamworld - is brought to life to the delight of readers young and old.
