I will not tell you which suspect is the actual killer, but it is so chilling to realize how "normal?" he appeared. This very frustration led to a high rate of illness and death among those who worked on the GRK task force. The frustration and anger of the numerous investigators, and the author, is evident. The book is more like a suspense/thriller than a typical true crime novel. ![]() At different times during the story suspects are named, questioned and dismissed. Ann Rule succeeds in chronicling nearly every step of the two decade investigation, yet it is never tedious. This is one of the better true crime books I have ever encountered. ![]()
