A Family of Serial Murderers: True Crime Author at the South Coastal Library
Join us in welcoming award-winning author and newspaper reporter Bruce E. Mowday for a talk on the Johnston brothers, a set of brothers convicted of mass and serial murders. Mr. Mowday has written 3 books covering the murders: Jailing the Johnston Gang, Stealing Wyeth, and Small Town Cops in the Crosshairs. While based in southern Chester County, Pennsylvania, the criminals committed crimes in Delaware and across the region. Mowday’s books are the result of three years of extensive research, his own experiences and interviews. One interview was conducted in a jail cell with Bruce A. Johnston Sr., convicted of six counts of murder.
A Hollywood movie, At Close Range, starring Christopher Walken and Sean Penn was based on the case.
Bruce Mowday's books are available at some local bookstores and online. For more information on Mowday, his books and his schedule of events, see www.mowday.com.
