This book was written by the sheriff who lead the Green River Task Force. Dead women began turning up on the banks of the Green River in the late 70's. After murdering somewhere in the neighborhood of fifty women, Gary Ridgewater (the Green River Killer) was finally stopped by David Reichert and other members of the police department in the 90's. This is the story of the search for this serial killer. The sheriff guides the reader down the long and taxing roads that eventually lead to an arrest and conviction. Because of his unique perspective, you see the toll that this kind of case can have on the people who work it. An interesting read.....
