本书根据真实案例改编而成，涉案地名人名均为化名。十个恐怖******案，就发生在我们身边，每一个都是曾被媒体严密封锁，当局讳莫如深的奇案大案。例如，肢体雪人、雨夜幽灵、地窖囚奴、******草人、变态色魔……以及轰动网络骇人听闻的刁爱青碎尸案。四个超级警察，各怀绝技，从全国警察队伍中挑选而出，组成中国特案组，负责对全国各地发生的特大******案进行侦破，案情恐怖离奇，此文中十起特大案件都是首次公布内幕。

《芒果街上的小屋》一本优美纯净的小书，一本“诗小说”。由几十个短篇组成，语言清澈如流水，点缀着零落的韵脚和新奇的譬喻，如一首首长歌短调，各自成韵，又彼此钩连，汇聚出一个清晰世界，各样杂沓人生。所有的讲述都归于一个叙述中心：居住在芝加哥拉美移民社区芒果街上的女孩埃斯佩朗莎。生就对弱的同情心和对美的感觉力，她用清澈的眼打量周围的世界，用美丽稚嫩的语言讲述成长、沧桑、生命的美好与不易和年轻的热望与梦想，梦想有一所自己的房子，梦想在写作中追寻自我，获得自由和帮助别人的能力。
