Arizona. Look closer.
From Phoenix and the East Valley to Tucson, Flagstaff, Yuma and Prescott, these six regional books follow investigations across Arizona. Choose one region, or explore all six in the collected edition.
A murdered reporter. A Buddhist temple attacked. Prosecutions that drew national attention. The Phoenix Files follows six cases from Phoenix and western Maricopa County, including Don Bolles, Winnie Ruth Judd, and the Canal Killer investigation.
Travis Alexander, the Fisher family, and Daniel Shaver are among the people at the center of these six East Valley accounts. The book follows each case through the available record, with room for the details that a familiar headline leaves out.
The January 8 shooting, the car bombing that killed Gary Triano, and the cases of Isabel Celis and Maribel Gonzalez anchor this southern Arizona volume. Six files connect Tucson’s better-known cases with others that deserve a closer look.
Flagstaff and northern Arizona provide the setting for six accounts, including Sasha Krause, the Northern Arizona University shooting, and Officer Jeffrey Moritz. The volume also follows federal cases from Navajo and Hopi communities.
The La Mesa murders, the Gunnell family, and a fatal prison escape are among the six cases in The Yuma Files. Follow their separate investigations and prosecutions through southwestern Arizona.
From Prescott Valley to communities farther west, six files examine the cases of Penelope Edwards and Troy Dunn, Lorimer Grove, Delbert Haas, and others. Each account follows its own evidence and court history.
All six Arizona regional books in one collection: Phoenix, the East Valley, Tucson, Flagstaff, Yuma, and Prescott. An additional statewide file examines the Tison prison break and the Lyons family murders.
