Description:
This rare uncorrected proof copy of Michelle McNamara's posthumous true crime masterpiece was distributed to reviewers and booksellers before the official 2018 hardback publication by Faber & Faber. The book details McNamara's investigation into the Golden State Killer, a serial rapist and murderer who terrorized California for over a decade. The narrative includes detailed accounts, atmospheric snapshots, and empathy for the victims. This early paperback edition offers a unique look into the development of a modern true crime classic, fulfilling McNamara's dream of helping to unmask the killer. The book includes an introduction by Gillian Flynn and an afterword by McNamara's husband, Patton Oswalt. This is a significant collectible for true crime enthusiasts and fans of the late author.
