Synopsis

On a chilly November afternoon in 1998, a tearful thirty-six-year-old man walked into the Humboldt County Sheriff's Department in Eureka, California, and confessed to something horrible. "I hurt some people," he said. Inside his pocket was the ghastly proof of his statement. But there was more to Wayne Adam Ford than the trail of mangled victims he left behind. More, even, than the twisted predator inside, which drove him to increasingly perverse sexual appetites. Pulitzer-nominated author Caitlin Rother draws on previously sealed testimony, interviews with the key players in the case, and the killer's shocking confession to explore the demons that drove a damaged man to his unspeakable crimes. Her book is a haunting, unforgettable true-life thriller.

Goodreads review by Shari

This was such a good book! It was so detailed and told of the lives of the victims as well as Wayne and his family. My head is still swimming with some of the things he did. What makes people even think up these things let alone do them. It's true when they say there are no monsters only human being......more

Goodreads review by Ted

Normally I'm not a fast reader but this book I finished in about two and a half day. In the beginning, I thought the book was a little dry, but that changed when I read a little further into the book it absolutely skyrocketed I actually found it hard to put down. The author has done a lot of researc......more

Goodreads review by Fishface

This was a really well-written account of a horrible series of crimes. A real page-turner. The author skated perilously close to the thin ice of "this is the story of a poor widdle serial killer, tragically beset by his own demons," but she kept the story from going out of bounds by including as muc......more
