Description
Rodney Alcala was a man who led a double life. On the surface, he was a charming and handsome photographer who had even appeared on a popular television show. But beneath the façade, he was a predator who stalked and murdered young girls and women in California and New York during the 1970s. In 2010, he was convicted of murdering five women, and two more in New York were later revealed to be among his victims. As he waited on Death Row, Alcala confessed to his crimes, but the full extent of his depravity may never be known. A portfolio of thousands of nude and erotic photographs, discovered at his arrest, raises disturbing questions about the extent of his crimes. In "The Killing Game", Alan R. Warren reveals the shocking details of Alcala's brutal crimes, as well as the trials and appeals that stretched on for decades. This is a true crime story that sheds light on the darkest corners of the human psyche. With meticulous research and a gripping narrative, Warren brings to life the story of Rodney Alcala, a man who was both a monster and a master of deception.
