Well Written Account Of Serial Murder
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book covering serial killings in the late 80/90's in the St. Augustine, Florida area was very well researched and written. Numerous references, eyewitness accounts and interviews with the victims and murderers family/friends make this a very good read. Especially interesting was the background material provided on the victims involved which left this reader with a real sense of who the woman were and how they got to the place in time that they unfortunatly met the worthless killer. One update/correction on the story: Madacsi and Motes, the two men convicted of attempted murder for a previous incident involving one of the serial killers ultimate victims - Diana Richardson - was given life sentences for their crimes by the state of Florida on the charges. The book states they were given 20 yrs. for the crime. Regardless, a recommended read.
Excellent true crime
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
As an avid true crime reader I found these authors wrote an exceptional book, which contains a great deal of insight into the whole field of understanding serial killers. Made excellent reading and did not get bogged down in a great deal of stuff about the legal system, which I find boring, but instead on the victims and the subject. Of the same caliber as Ann Rule and Wm Phelps ..
Very well written thriller, very good pictures

True story of a serial killer on the loose. He (William Lindsey) admitted to seven killings, but possibly caused many more accross the United States. Very good summer reading.

A great read, Unique-has personal touch (local authors) combined with extensive research and clever documentation of data. Organization and structure was excellent and differed from other S.K.books because of subtle fusion of authenticity and creativity. As avid reader of S.K. books found this one interesting and informative, reflecting the successful collaboration of a scientific writer and a novelist whose ability to "turn a phrase" and hold reader's attention is remarkable. Characters described and developed well, thus producing a sound, scary and accurate profile of an S.K. and gutwrenching sympathy for the victims & families. Fascinating portrayal of St. Augustine's dark side, the crack cocaine culture and characters who inhabit & perpetuate it's squalor. A great read-hope to her more from the Vernons.
gripping story of a serial killer in FL
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is about a serial killer in St. Augustine, FL - it combines a mix of police reports, psychological profiling, and interviews with people who knew the killer and the victims to tell the story of this man and the crimes he committed. Very well written - a fascinating read and so timely, given the recent capture of the BTK killer.
