Description
Dennis Rader, a man who led a double life, stalked and murdered a family of four in 1974, and went on to claim ten more victims. For thirty years, he evaded capture, leaving behind a trail of terror and notes that taunted the city. His ordinary facade as a church council president and family man shocked those who knew him. Katherine Ramsland's book is a unique insight into the mind of a serial killer. Through interviews, letters, and other correspondence, Ramsland presents a meticulous analysis of Rader's psyche, revealing the childhood roots and motivations that drove him to commit such heinous crimes. This is a rare and intelligent look at the making of a serial killer, and the darkness that can lurk beneath the surface of an ordinary person.
