Synopsis

Twenty-six-year-old actor Daniel Wozniak was unemployed, facing eviction, and deep in debt for his upcoming wedding. So he devised a diabolical plan: He asked his neighbor Sam Herr, a young war veteran, to help him move some things into the attic of an empty theater. There, Wozniak shot Herr twice in the head before taking his ATM card and cell phone. Hours later, Wozniak performed on stage with his fiancée in a local production of the musical Nine, convinced that he had gotten away with murder . . .

Wozniak dismembered his victim’s body and hid the pieces. Then he lured Herr’s college friend Juri “Julie” Kibuishi to Herr’s apartment and shot her twice in the head. The police immediately declared Herr a prime suspect—just as Wozniak had planned. But when Herr was declared missing, and his ATM withdrawals led authorities to Wozniak at his bachelor party, the actor was forced to play the role of a lifetime in a shocking murder investigation that would be his greatest—and final—performance . . .

Goodreads review by Ronnie on August 15, 2017

This is an interesting case and the book provides a lot of information, but it's presented in a way that totally robs the story of any drama or suspense, like spilling all the beans at the outset so that everything that comes later is old news.......more

Goodreads review by Cheryl on May 27, 2017

I vaguely remember hearing about this case. The most mind boggling part of this whole case was not the act of the crimes but Daniel's demeanor towards the whole situation. He acted as if he was playing a part in a show, even when Mr. Greenberg went to visit him in prison. How, someone can be so dist......more

Goodreads review by Audio on August 02, 2017

Killing For You is a terrifying look into actor turned murderous psychopath Daniel Wozniak’s vicious and completely uncalled for killing of two innocent people. The depth of his callousness and lack of remorse is more frightening than any monster you could make up. This nearly 8 ½ hour audiobook is a......more
