Summary

The basis for the major six-part HBO documentary series. Number one New York Times best seller. A best book of the year: Washington Post | Maureen Corrigan, NPR | Paste | Seattle Times | Entertainment Weekly | Esquire | Slate | Buzzfeed | Jezebel | Philadelphia Inquirer | Publishers Weekly | Kirkus Reviews | Library Journal | Bustle Winner of the Goodreads Choice Awards for Nonfiction | Anthony Award winner | SCIBA Book Award winner | Finalist for the Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime | Longlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Excellence The haunting true story of the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California during the '70s and '80s, and of the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case - which was solved in April 2018.    Introduction by Gillian Flynn  Afterword by Patton Oswalt “A brilliant genre-buster.... Propulsive, can’t-stop-now reading.” (Stephen King) For more than 10 years, a mysterious and violent predator committed 50 sexual assaults in Northern California before moving south, where he perpetrated 10 sadistic murders. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area. Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true-crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer". Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was. I’ll Be Gone in the Dark - the masterpiece McNamara was writing at the time of her sudden death - offers an atmospheric snapshot of a moment in American history and a chilling account of a criminal mastermind and the wreckage he left behind. It is also a portrait of a woman’s obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth. Utterly original and compelling, it is destined to become a true-crime classic - and may at last unmask the Golden State Killer.  PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Summary

Der Killer kam immer nachts: Von 1976 bis 1986 ereignete sich in beschaulichen Vororten in Kalifornien eine Vergewaltigungs- und Mordserie, die die USA in ihren Grundfesten erschütterte. Auf unheimliche Weise tauchte der Mörder plötzlich im Schlafzimmer seiner Opfer auf. Und immer wieder entkam er unerkannt. Der "Golden State Killer«: ein Mysterium, an dem sich trotz zahlloser Spuren Generationen von Ermittlern die Zähne ausbissen. Michelle McNamara heftete sich an die Fersen des Verbrechers und ermittelte über acht Jahre lang auf eigene Faust. Sie kam dem Monster immer näher - und starb, kurz bevor sie ihren Bericht fertigstellen konnte.

Dieci brutali delitti

Summary

Per oltre dieci anni, un uomo ha compiuto più di cinquanta aggressioni nel nord della California. Successivamente, spostandosi verso sud, ha lasciato dietro di sé una scia di sangue: dieci omicidi brutali. Nessuno è riuscito a catturarlo, è scomparso nel nulla sottraendosi alle massicce operazioni di polizia in tutta la zona. Trent'anni dopo, Michelle McNamara, una giornalista, ha deciso di indagare per trovare lo psicopatico che lei stessa ha soprannominato il "Golden State Killer", termine poi adottato anche dalle autorità. Questo libro, pubblicato dopo la sua morte, è una straordinaria testimonianza del lavoro che ha compiuto e offre una prospettiva lucidissima sull'America, attraverso il racconto di tutto l'orrore che una singola mente criminale è stata capace di generare. A emergere è anche il ritratto di una donna e della sua instancabile ricerca della verità. Salutato come un classico moderno del giornalismo d'inchiesta, ha contribuito alla realizzazione del sogno della sua autrice: smascherare il Golden State Killer.
