Nine top books on the rise and fall of creepy cults

At The Barnes & Noble Book Blog Jess Dukes tagged nine top books on the rise and fall of creepy cults, including:
Helter Skelter, Vincent Bugliosi with Curt Gentry

Bugliosi got a close look at the Manson family and their enigmatic leader when he prosecuted them for the murder of Hollywood starlet Sharon Tate. This is one of the best true-crime stories ever written, and presents a full explanation of how Charles Manson convinced members of his “family” to commit one of the most horrific crimes of the 20th century.
Read about another book on the list.
