Predator

Predator by Walker, Steven. mass_market edition. ISBN: 9780786020188.

The horrifying true story of Timothy Krajcir, a serial killer who terrorized the Midwest for three decades, claiming at least nine victims before he was finally convicted. This story has been covered by numerous major media outlets including CNN, The New York Times, and USA Today. The subject of Walkers book inspired multiple television shows. 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...He would travel to towns where nobody knew him, break into a womans 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. But in 2007, new DNA testing finally linked Krajcir to another college girls 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. "All crime connoisseurs should read Steven Walkers account of this clever and deviant predator." --Katherine Ramsland, author of The Human Predator and The Devils Dozen
