Not really the kind of thing I'd normally pick up, but a really interesting account of a serial killer who was active in my hometown (Richmond, VA) in the 80s. I don't know that I'd have enjoyed it as much if I wasn't a Richmond native, but it's incredibly well researched and detailed. The author did over 50 interviews and it really shows in the book. It also focuses on DNA as a forensic tool, as this was one of the first cases worldwide to utilize DNA for a murder trial. It kept me interested the whole time because despite the fact that these killings took place just a few years before I was born, I'd never heard of it.

All in all, I'd highly recommend if you're interested in a kind of play by play true crime, if you're from Richmond, or if you're curious about the history of DNA. Definitely a worthwhile read.
