This hunt took nearly twenty years.
It began with the discovery of three women's bodies near the Green River in suburban Seattle in August 1982. More remains of women who had been subjected to sophisticated and sadistic abuse would soon be found. Whether teenage girls who had run away from home or prostitutes, they were all easy and vulnerable prey for the faceless killer. Over the years, he killed forty-nine women - more than any other serial killer in U.S. history. And for twenty years, Sheriff David Reichert was on the killer's trail. The killer always managed to stay one step ahead of Reichert, local authorities, the FBI, and even another famous maniac, Ted Bundy, who took an interest in the bloody work of a follower... But the sheriff had no doubt that he would find the Green River Ripper, no matter how long it took... That day came in 2001, thanks to DNA testing that linked the suspect to three victims. With startling insider revelations and fascinating forensic details of the most ruthless manhunt, this book reveals both the heart of true evil and the fearless efforts of someone who has dedicated his life to fighting it...
