On November 15, 1959, in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues.

With his groundbreaking nonfiction novel, “In Cold Blood”, author Truman Capote vividly reconstructs these tragic events in a work that would give birth to the True Crime genre. Join the HYP Book Club for their March meeting to discuss this seminal classic.
