Author Rule was volunteering in a Seattle clinic as a series of murders occurred in the area. Then as suddenly as they began, the killings stopped. Several years later a man was arrested in Florida for turning a college sorority into a slaughterhouse. When his picture appeared in the press, Rule recognized him as another of the clinic's volunteers, a charming young man she knew as Ted. His full name: Ted Bundy. When arrested, he told police that he was "the most cold-blooded son of a bitch" they'd ever meet. He wasn't lying; investigators eventually linked him to more than 30 murders. In this revised edition, Rule updates her very personal story of the Bundy case with additional information that has come to light since his 1989 execution.

I have almost finished The stranger beside me by Ann Rule and I would just like to share a little. This is the first True Crime book I have read and I would like to say it is also the scariest book I have ever read. I am having restless nights reading this book, but I just can't let it go! Ann Rule puts a lot of herself in to this book and although it is all factual and doesn't read like fiction at all, it stills chills you to the bone. Ted Bundy was a truly disturbed man and the way he managed to stay undetected for so long is one of the scariest things about him. The other scary thing is how the young women he attacked or kidnapped and murdered were so totally unaware of him and went willingly or they were asleep and had no choice when they were attacked. Brutal is a good way to describe the book, not only for its contents, but Brutal is also the effect it has had on me.
