The masterful true crime account of the Golden State Killer - the serial rapist turned murderer who terrorised California for over a decade - from the late Michelle McNamara. I'll Be Gone in the Dark offers a unique snapshot of suburban West Coast America in the 1980s, and a chilling account of the wreckage left behind by a criminal mastermind. It is also a portrait of one woman's obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth, three decades later, in spite of the personal cost. Updated with material which takes in the extraordinary events that followed its initial publication, Michelle McNamara's first and last book is a contemporary classic - humane, haunting and heroic.

Since I have somewhat of an interest in true crime and especiall...
What a great true crime book. What is weird is that I didn't hear about Michelle McNamara until after she passed away. A lot of people who have been following me know that I love true crime and mystery books. I am sad to say that I had not read any of McNamara's writing before now. She is able to br...
