Southern Nightmare: The Hunt for The South Side Strangler

More about the book

Thirty years ago, the South Side Strangler serial killer terrorized the city of Richmond, Virginia, brutally raping and murdering women in their homes. This gripping, epic true-crime tale is one the most important chapters in the history of forensic science and the modern American criminal justice system, marking the first time in U.S. history that a murderer was brought to justice using DNA evidence. An adaptation of the popular true-crime podcast Southern Nightmare, this book is based on interviews with retired homicide detectives, FBI profilers, prosecutors, defense attorneys and friends and family of the victims.
