For twenty years, Sheriff David Reichert of King County, Washington, was a man with a single, all-consuming obsession: to capture the most notorious serial killer in American history — the monster who would become known nationwide by the river he used as a dumping ground. From the earliest morning hours to the middle of the night, Reichert combed local streets and alleys, wilderness and parkland, searching for any clue that could lead him to the Green River killer. He was driven by compassion for the victims’ families and justice for the victims. He staked his career and his life on putting an end to the most horrifying episode in his beloved county’s history.
Dennis Boutsikaris delivers this story in the same meticulous way that Reichert investigated the Green River murders outside of Seattle. Capturing both the tone and mood of this painstaking investigation, which spanned twenty years, the telling is ideal. This author/narrator combination couldn't be better. Intriguing from beginning to end, Reichert's book reveals the nitty-gritty details of the most horrendous serial-murder spree in U.S. history. Dispersed through the audiobook are actual recordings of Reichert's interviews with Green River killer Gary Ridgeway, after he was captured, and with serial murderer Ted Bundy, whom they interviewed during the investigation in hopes of getting some insight into what the serial killer might do next. This chilling presentation shows how monsters such as these killers can sound alarmingly like regular guys. D.L.M. 2005 Audie Award Finalist (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
