About this listen
For 10 years, the California Interstate 5 highway was haunted by a dangerous serial killer. Incredibly skilled at staying ahead of the investigators as the bodies started to pile up, there wasn't enough evidence to charge the culprit with murder even once he'd been identified. Instead, they had to build a first-degree murder case in a few months while the killer was locked up on an assault conviction.
Key to this was a cast of four: Vito Bertocchini, the burly ex-street cop who took the killing of a beautiful young woman personally; Kay Maulsby, the rookie homicide detective who helped unmask the killer; Ray Biondi, who fought severe budget cuts that threatened to derail the investigation; and criminalist Faye Springer, who attempted to tie the suspect to his victims through subtle but persuasive microscopic evidence.
Drawing on hundreds of hours of exclusive interviews with these investigators, as well as other important figures such as the killer's reclusive wife, number-one New York Times best-selling author Bruce Henderson builds a fascinating portrait of this unrepentant murderer.

Brilliant story, reading everything.
Don't listen to the bad reviews. Those people must be suffering Audible Overload. Loved every minute of this book. Roger was killed in prison March 2021.

Thoroughly researched and well written
This thoroughly researched case kept my interest over the many hours listening to it. Well written with sensitivity and meticulous detail, it took me a while to become accustomed to the narrator's style but once I did I think he did a pretty good job.

A crime lover’s saga
Living in America. …… a perspective nightmare.
However it’s absorbing, and it’s probably a little too long.

Just became very very tedious. Couldn't finish
Good story, well researched and I'm sure very accurate but just became too long and too boring. Couldn't make it to the end.
