Then the first female corpses were found in the Green River. And the reign of terror and maddening mystery began. This is the story of a fiendishly clever killer and of the young women – some little more than children – who became his victims. It is a riveting account, too, of the Green River Task Force that spent $15 million on botanists, anthropologists, seers, psychologists, lasers that could life fingerprints, and computers that match a face to a sliver of jawbone – all to no avail as the death toll mounted to 49, and still counting.’ (from rear wrap)
