This is an excellent book for true crime fanatics. John Wayne Gacy is a classic serial killer case. Terry Sullivan takes us with him in the hunt to bring a serial killer to justice. When I say he takes us through the case, I mean he takes us through the case. If there was paperwork that was filed, Terry wrote it in; if he took a left down a street during a surveillance shift, Terry wrote it in. Terry made sure the reader was along the ride when this case took it many turns, from every fumble to the eventual arrest of JWG. This is also a book that's heavy on the court trial proceedings. This case was significant to Terry, and it shows through the meticulous writing of this book. The detailed writing not only tells this story well, but it also reveals the passion that Terry has in his job-as a prosecutor and as a writer. As I mention before this is a book for true crime fans, people who know the case, but want to know more details about it. *This should go without saying, but trigger warning: there are very graphic descriptions of violence.
