In this true story—a haunting saga of medical murder set in an era of steamships and gaslights—Gregg Olsen reveals one of the most unusual and disturbing criminal cases in American history. In 1911 two wealthy British heiresses, Claire and Dora Williamson, arrived at a sanitorium in the forests of the Pacific Northwest to undergo the revolutionary “fasting treatment” of Dr. Linda Burfield Hazzard. It was supposed to be a holiday for the two sisters, but within a month of arriving at what the locals called Starvation Heights, the women underwent brutal treatments and were emaciated shadows of their former selves. Claire and Dora were not the first victims of Linda Hazzard, a quack doctor of extraordinary evil and greed. But as their jewelry disappeared and forged bank drafts began transferring their wealth to Hazzard’s accounts, the sisters came to learn that Hazzard would stop at nothing short of murder to achieve her ambitions.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia, was the setting for the story. It was a world bustling and tranquil, with a musky sweet-smelling blend of extremes. The sisters, Dora and Claire, were the only unmarried women there. #2 The sisters, Ethel and Gertrude, had died from scarlet fever when they were young. Their father had died shortly after their mother. Their grandfather, Charles Williamson, had left them a fantastic fortune. #3 The sisters were drawn to the idea of being healthy and wealthy, and they spent their fortune on traveling to health institutes and hospitals. They eventually received a book from Dr. Linda Burfield Hazzard, which explained how every ailment is caused by dietary factors. #4 The fasting treatment, which was the subject of Dr. Hazzard’s book, depended on the fact that disease has its origin in impaired digestion. The sisters thought little of traditional doctors and their drugs. They were excited to try the sanitarium in the country west of Seattle.

New York Times bestselling adult true crime author Gregg Olsen makes his YA debut with Empty Coffin, a gripping new fiction series for teens based on ripped-from-the-headlines stories...with a paranormal touch. Crime lives--and dies--in the deceptively picture-perfect town of Port Gamble (aka "Empty Coffin"), Washington. Evil lurks and strange things happen--and 15-year-olds Hayley and Taylor Ryan secretly use their wits and their telepathic "twin-sense" to uncover the truth about the town's victims and culprits.

Based on the shocking true crime about cyber-bullying, Envy will take you to the edge--and push you right over.

Stella Nickell's small-time world was one of big-time dreams. In 1986, her biggest one came true when her husband died during a seizure, making her the beneficiary of a $175,000-plus insurance payoff—until authorities discovered Bruce Nickell's headache capsules had been laced with cyanide. In an attempt to cover her tracks, Stella did the unconscionable. She saw to it that a stranger would also become a "random casualty" of cyanide-tainted painkillers. But Stella's cunning plan came undone when her daughter Cynthia notified federal agents. And troubling questions lingered like the secret of bitter almonds... What would turn a gregarious barfly like Stella into a cold-hearted killer overnight? Why would Cynthia, a mirror image of her mother, turn on her own flesh and blood? Did Cynthia reveal everything she knew about the crimes? The stunning answers would unfold in a case that sparked a national uproar, dug deep into a troubled family history, and exposed an American mother for the pretty poison she was. Gregg Olsen's Bitter Almonds is true crime writing at its best.
