The Boy Who Fired The First Shot (Notorious USA, Oregon Book 2)

WITH PHOTOS.
A boy with a rifle walks into a middle school, intent on carrying out Western-style vigilante justice. A wife and mother of four kisses her twelve-year-old student and forever changes our definition of student-teacher conferences. The worldâ€™s most famous serial killers put Washington on the map. A bathtub, a handgun, a meat grinder, and a burn barrel play a role in the murder of the captain of a freighter.

New York Times bestselling author Gregg Olsen (â€œIf Loving You Is Wrong,â€ â€œStarvation Heightsâ€) and veteran journalist Rebecca Morris (â€œTed and Ann â€“ The Mystery of a Missing Child and Her Neighbor Ted Bundyâ€), take a new look at Washingtonâ€™s most notorious crimes. Many of them made history. Two â€“ Ted Bundyâ€™s killings and Mary Kay Letourneauâ€™s teacher sex scandal â€“ made Time magazineâ€™s list of the top crimes of the 20th century. Some are lesser known or have taken on new importance, including one of the countryâ€™s first school shootings, in Moses Lake. With a bonus essay by Washington native Gregg Olsen on growing up in the shadow of serial killers Ted Bundy, Gary Ridgway, and Robert Lee Yates, Jr.

Cases include:
Barry Loukaitis â€“ Before Sandy Hook and Columbine, there was Frontier Middle School in Moses Lake, Washington.
Rosalina Misina Mendoza Dugeno Manthie Edmondson â€“ She had many last names as she married and killed one husband after another.
Ruth Neslund â€“ Her husband thought captaining a huge freighter right into the West Seattle Bridge was the worst that could happen to him. It wasnâ€™t.
Mary Kay LeTourneau â€“ She said they were â€œsoul mates.â€ He made a bet with another student that he would sleep with her.
Ted Bundy â€“ Heâ€™s the one and only â€œTed,â€ and remains a part of our lives. Now weâ€™ve learned more about his.
Kenneth Bianchi â€“ Los Angelesâ€™ most terrifying murders were finally solved 1,200 miles north in Bellingham, Washington.
