Book Overview
He Stalked His Victims. . . A mother and daughter--brutalized, murdered, and left to rot in the summer heat. A young college student--killed with a .38 handgun at a remote highway rest stop. These were just a few of the victims of Timothy Krajcir, a sexual predator with an unquenchable appetite for violence. . . From State To State. . . He would travel to towns where nobody knew him, break into a woman's home, and wait for her. It started when he was still in his teens, when a rape conviction landed Krajcir in jail. After that, he spent much of his adult life behind bars for various sex crimes. By the time he was in his early 30s, he was a free man. Free to stalk, rape, and kill. Three Decades Of Murder And Blood. . . But in 2007, new DNA testing finally linked Krajcir to another college girl's murder. Ultimately, Krajcir confessed to killing nine women--five in Missouri and four in Illinois and Pennsylvania. But his three-decade reign of terror has never been forgotten--and the full range of his predatory crimes never revealed--until now. With 16 Pages Of Shocking Photos

The Devil's in the Details
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
What made Steven Walker's "Predator" so enthralling was the obvious amount of time he devoted to researching his subject. It's easy to say that crimes like the ones described in "Predator" are evil, but when a skilled author like Walker describes the criminal's past and in fact quotes him and puts him context you see what evil looks like and sounds like. I thought Walker was especially sensitive to the hard and seemingly impossible police and detective work that tied all the clues together and I was particularly impressed with the sympathetic treatment of the victims and their families. "Predator" is extremely well written,reads like a novel and I would like to see Mr. Walker try his hand at fiction again.
Excellent Read....This book gave me the Creeps!!

I loved this book. Steven Walker does an excellent job detailing the 9 murders that terrified Cape Girardeau Missouri for almost 30 years. I grew up in Cape Girardeau. I remember how everyone was terrified to leave their home. Great read....I couldn't put it down.
