I'm a t.v. true crime junkie, of sorts. I haven't read this book but I did see some shows that were on the subject and heard of Michelle. So sad that she passed away at such a young age! I'm waiting to hear how that scum-bag eluded the police for over 40 years. Someone told me he's "playing" the stupid-card in captivity.

The author, Michelle McNamara, died just two years before the man called the Golden State Killer was apprehended. Joseph James Deanglelo, now 72, was living right where the evidence collected and assessed by Ms. McNamara and her group of similarly obsessed searchers thought he'd be.



This is much more than a true crime book, it is also a true people book, written by a talented writer who, with a sense of humor and amazing diligence tracked down and summarized information strewn all over California. She shares glimpses of her own life as well and makes the reader wish they had known her.



MUST read.

Amazing you should say that. I thought the same as I saw him sitting in a wheel chair with his head tilted slightly sideways looking like he was in dementia.

HAH! I say. I read where his yard was meticulously kept and you can tell by his tan he spent a lot of time outdoors. He thinks he can slither through this with his schemes.

I want to gather a bunch of us and talk about this guy and his crimes. Anyone in? My house? P.M. me. Next Wednesday. 2:00?

I would so love that lol I wish I had people that I could talk to about him and all the crimes he’s committed and specific details that are so terrifying... that it’s hard to believe.
