Almost every word of it is wrong. It wasn't an axe, it was a hatchet. Not her mother, her stepmother. Not forty whacks, nineteen for Abby Borden and ten for Andrew. But the rhyme got one thing right, the name, and Fall River has been singing it for over a hundred and thirty years. On a sweltering August mornin...

The Eiffel Tower is rusting, expensive to maintain, and quietly rumored in the papers to be a candidate for demolition. To most Parisians, that's background noise. To a sharply dressed man in a suite at the Hotel de Crillon, forged government stationery in his briefcase, it's an opportunity. He is not a politician, not a diplomat, not even French. B...

Above the Hudson sits the ruin of what was once the grandest garden estate in America, its terraces gone feral, its old stone gatehouse renamed the Devil's Cave by local teenagers. And through 1976 and into 1977, people walking the trails keep finding dead German shepherds. Nobody calls it a case, because it isn't one.

Brooklyn, July 31, 1977, a few minutes past two in the morning. A patrol officer writes up a yellow Ford Galaxie parked too close to a fire hydrant, tucks the ticket under the wiper, and drives on. He never looks inside the car. He has no reason to. That parking ticket will do more to end the biggest manhunt in NYPD history than hundreds of detectives managed in a year, and no one will understand its importance for another ten days. This is Part 2 of our three-part Summer of Sam series, and i...

Summer 1975. Tourists landing at JFK are handed a pamphlet by off-duty police officers. On the cover is a hooded skull. The title is "Welcome to Fear City," and inside is a survival guide advising visitors to stay off the streets after six, never ride the subway, and if at all possible, not to come at all. It is a real document, printed by the unions representing the men whose job was protecting New York. The city is broke, burning, and shedding thousands of cops. And into that city, one year...

San Francisco, 2013. A letter arrives at a police station with no return address. The writer says his name is John Anglin. He says he escaped Alcatraz in June 1962 with his brother Clarence and Frank Morris. He says he is eighty-three now, and sick, and the last one left.

It is made of soap, toilet paper, and real human hair. Frank Morris has been gone for nine hours. And he is not the only one. On the most secure island in America, a prison the government spent twenty-eight years promising could not be beaten, three convicted bank robbers have just walked out through walls

November 10, 2009. Inside a Virginia execution chamber, the man at the center of one of the most infamous killing sprees in American history is asked if he has any final words. He says nothing. No confession, no apology, no reason, the same thing he offered every stranger he killed. Minutes later, John Allen Muhammad is pronounced dead. If this were a simpler story, that would be the ending. But the seventeen-year-old pulled from that car beside him is very much alive, and the courts of this country

While five million people were afraid of a stranger, one woman was afraid of a name. She lived in the Maryland suburbs of Washington with her three children, watched the same coverage as everyone else, the faceless sniper, the white van, the lone white male the experts kept describing, and did not believe a word of it. Because she was the one person in America who understood that this was not really about strangers at all. Her ex-husband had given himself a new name the year before: John Allen

A region of five million will learn to weave across parking lots and crouch behind car doors.

He spent his whole career guarding the game. Then he robbed it blind. For more than a decade, McDonald's Monopoly turned a paper sticker peeled off a fries box into the most reliable lottery in America. Cash, cars, grand prizes worth a fortune. There was just one problem. The winners were never random. They were chosen, recruited, and coached by a single man.
