Synopsis
From #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Stranger Beside Me comes the terrifying true crime story of a serial killer hiding in plain sight. To his neighbors, Jerry Brudos was a gentle, quiet man whose mild manner sharply contrasted with his awesome physical strength. To his employers, Jerry was an expert electrician, the kind of skilled worker you just don't find anymore. To his wife, Darcie, Jerry was a good husband, and a loving father to their children, despite his increasingly sexual demands on her, and his violent insistence that she never venture into his garage workroom and the giant food freezer there. To the Oregon police, Jerry Brudos was the most hideously twisted killer they had ever unmasked. And they brought to light what he had done to four young women--and perhaps many more--in the nightmare darkness of his sexual hunger and rage. First, Jerry Brudos was brought to trial...and then, in a shattering aftermath, his wife was accused as well..., From #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Stranger Beside Me comes the terrifying true crime story of a serial killer hiding in plain sight.

    • it was a chilling account of a crime.

      I thought the writer had an excellent grasp of the psychology involved in the life of the criminal. In addition, she highlighted the fact that life imprisonment is not really for life but most of the murderers get out after a few years and go on to commit more crimes. Prison overcrowding is one excuse the prison system gives to let criminals out early. It is despicable that innocents die at the hands of convicted criminals who should have been in jail when the crime was committed. Ann Rule is my favorite true crime writer and her grasp of language and her subject is superb. I ran across a few words that I was not familiar with and was very impressed. She has me hooked.

    • A quick read

      Since this is about true crimes that had really happened, reading this book made my skin crawl. He was truly a sick, and twisted monster. Those poor girls were pure, and young.
