S18 Ep125: The Dead Soul with M. William Phelps

True Crime Tuesday presents The Dead Soul with TRUE CRIME EXPERT/Analyst, Creator/Executive Producer/Writer/Author and former Host of Investigation Discovery’s DARK MINDS, M. William Phelps!

M. William Phelps’s new book, THE DEAD SOUL, takes you on a suspenseful journey through Boston's illicit past, where Detective Jake "Sundance" Cooper fights to redeem his crumbling career. At the same time, a sadistic serial killer known as "the Optimist"—a character based on the author’s 20 years of research and writing about real serial killers—terrorizes young female victims along the city's Freedom Trail.

Matthew joins True Crime Tuesday to detail the differences between real life serial killers and the ones in his books and Hollywood, How he developed the characters for The Dead Soul, the parallells in the book with the Catholic church and police corruption in Boston, and his burning passion for podcasting and his passion projects, Paper Ghosts, and Crossing The Line!
