Publisher's Summary:
Brutality, sadism, remorselessness...just a need to kill. This is Carl Eugene Watts, the Sunday Morning Slasher
What turns a man into a killer? America has become the undoubted home of the mass-murderer, playing host to many of the most famous villains in history. From John Wayne Gacy to Jeffrey Dahmer, thousands of people have fallen victim to some of the evilest men in history. So horrible are many of these crimes, that the events themselves can become blurred. Often, we overlook some of the most hideous crimes. There are legions of forgotten serial killers, people whose sadism and brutality is relegated to a footnote. This is one of those stories.
Carl Eugene Watts, Coral to his friends, was a serial killer during the latter stages of the 20th century. His crimes are forgotten by the mainstream, but he may have had a hand in the murder of over 100 women. Stalking around Michigan and Texas during the 1970s and 1980s, his family had no idea of his true nature. His friends and associates had no clue. Behind the mask of normalcy hid one of the country's most brutal killers.
In this book, we will examine the life and crimes of Coral Watts. We will learn about his background, about his history, and try to explore the reasons he might have strayed so far from the beaten path of humanity. We will look in detail at some of his crimes, especially those which formed the basis of his conviction, and try to extrapolate some greater meaning from these random acts of violence. Nicknamed the Sunday Morning Slasher, Coral Watts would prove to be one of the most vicious killers in American history.

Excellent True Crime Book
It's been a while since I read this book, so I can't remember everything I read, BUT, I do remember breezing right through it within a two day period. Maybe less than that. It was informative and well written with pictures. Very sad story for the victims friends and family. Very stressful for the police or anyone else involved, to track him down and bring him to justice.
This book was on sale when I bought it for .99Â, and was worth every penny. I think it's worth even more than that, so I suggest you buy it.
A study of true brutality
The person called Carl Eugene Watts was a violent offender, an animal that was allowed to walk the streets to attack and murder innocent females. His crimes got him off scot free, due to shoddy police work. At least it was put to an end, through the Texas justice system. He has since died, giving the public a collective sigh of relief. Jack Smith is one author who gives us what we ask for in the true crime genre
A rarity, very few black serial killers.
Wow!!! This guy was slick. He got away with so many murders, before someone in law enforcement caught on. This was before the Internet, mostly.
Very interesting
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book on this particular case. Hadn't heard of it until now. So sad that it took so long to capture him. Well written. Will read more of your books.
