An infamous murder spree. A monstrous hoax. The definitive book - updated with new evidence.
'DeSalvo Is the Strangler!' declared the headlines after handyman Albert DeSalvo confessed to eleven brutal rape/murders that terrorized Boston from 1962 to 1964. The repeat sex offender boasted he had raped an additional 2,000 women. His story became the subject of a bestselling book and major Hollywood movie. But DeSalvo was not The Boston Strangler.
Author Susan Kelly's detailed investigation shows us the true DeSalvo - a pathological liar whose hunger for celebrity drove him to false confessions - and indicates that the stranglings were committed by more than one killer. In an eye-opening update that explores stunning DNA findings, a shocking re-autopsy, and expert profiling evidence, she shows why this savage, unsolved case continues to fascinate and haunt us.
