Could not put this book down till I finished!

WOW! This book is an Amazing page-turner! Knowing these events actually happened gives the reader a deeper sense of urgency in finding the killer. Detective Christine Keers showed dedication and tenacity which is all too uncommon today. There is no doubt in my mind that many more people would have died if Christine had taken the easy way out and simply given up early on. Christine Keers certainly has my greatest respect! The victim of any crime would want her in their corner. Thanks for a wonderful book!

Book Description

Between 1986 and 1992, Riverside County, California became the scene of a series of savage sex murders that shocked the nation. Ninteen prostitutes were raped and sexually mutilated by a killer who left his grisly trademark on each victim. For almost 6 years he terroized the city, leaving a trail of false leads, few clues and even fewer suspects... Homicide detective Christine Keers had been investigating the case for a year when, just ten hours after she predicted the killers next move 41 year old William Lester Suff was apprehended for the murders. Even more incredible was the fact that Suff was a Riverside County stock clerk who was in daily contact with the very detectives assigned to the case! No one would believe that Suff was the notorious butcher of Riverside County...until Keers exposed the monster that lived behind the facade of the personable, church-going family man. Suff already had a history of murder-the first victim was his own two month old daughter. Here is the horrifying true story of a depraved killer who committed unspeakable crimes practially under the noses of the police-told by the courageous woman who finally brought him to justice.
