This book is a feminist re-telling of Ted Bundy's crimes against female students in Florida during the 1970s. It retells the crimes from the survivors' perspective and contains well-written commentary on American culture during the period. The prose was great, and it points out the media focus on handsome and charming male criminals at the expense of women's experiences and trauma.
