Drawn from Memory
The Story of Samuel Little
Samuel Little confessed to 93 murders.
More than 60 have been confirmed.
Most of his victims were Black women. Poor. Vulnerable. And nearly all were forgotten.
For over four decades, Samuel Little traveled across the United States, targeting women who lived in society's blind spotssex workers, addicts, women without strong family connections or anyone with the power to demand justice. Police dismissed them. Headlines ignored them. Many weren't even listed as missing. And that's exactly why he chose them.
It wasn't that Samuel Little was invisible.
It's that his victims were.
From jail, near the end of his life, he began to confessmurder after murder. He didn't just give names. He gave faces, sketching portraits of his victims from memory. These chilling drawings became a macabre roadmap for the FBI, who would eventually confirm him as the most prolific serial killer in American history.
But Drawn from Memory isn't about the killer. It's about the women.
Their lives. Their silence. Their return to the light.
Through 31 chapters and over 200,000 words of unflinching truth, Ellington Bass Sr. reconstructs the systemic failure that let this happenhow racial bias, media apathy, and jurisdictional indifference allowed one man to murder across decades with almost no resistance. Bass delivers the full arc: from Little's troubled beginnings to his final confession in a jail cell. But most importantly, he brings voice to the victimsmany of whose names were never spoken in courtrooms or newsrooms, but are finally spoken here.
This book is grounded in fact: real cases, real sketches, real confessions. It draws on FBI records, public interviews, and forensic confirmations. It is not a work of imaginationit is a reckoning.
Drawn from Memory forces us to face not just the killer, but the questions he leaves behind:
This is not just true crime.
This is justice, memory, and resistanceetched into history, one name at a time.
If you're looking for a book that honors the silenced, confronts hard truths, and refuses to turn away, Drawn from Memory will leave you changed.
Because remembering them isn't optional.
It's the least we owe.
