Meet the Author: House of Horrors: The Shocking True Story of Anthony Sowell, the Cleveland Strangler by Robert Sberna

In October of 2009, the entire nation was shocked by a SWAT team's grisly discovery of eleven bodies in the Imperial Avenue home of Anthony Sowell. Cleveland-based journalist Robert Sberna dares to go down the rabbit hole of the mind of a serial killer with thorough research, interviews with experts and a burning desire to understand. More importantly, he examines the lives of the forgotten victims, who were often ignored and demonized because of their lifestyles. After a long journey engaging with police, family members, surviving victims and Sowell himself, Sberna lays bare the unique challenges faced by the police and coroner investigating a series of tragedies and provides readers with an account that is as honest as it is gripping. Books will be available for sale and signing at the event.
