A Certain Type of Evil


" Any of us who has raised children know, as John F. Kennedy once said, to have a child is to give hostages to fate' "
Although I have read this book before, reading it again with it's updates still sends shivers upmy spine. Would I have been lured if approached by him?
His charm fooled so many.
This is important for young people to know. Be vigilant and never trust a stranger. Yet, Bundy wasn't a stranger to Ann Rule and it took decades for her to fully accept the depravity that lay underneath the charming facade.
If you are interested in knowing more about the victims, watch "Surviving Bundy", with interviews with some survivors

Kind of lack luster. Doesn't really give any specific details about anything in particular. Also not for someone that isn't already well versed in Bundy's crimes.... that being said, if you are well versed then it doesn't bring anything new to the table... very meh over all. I feel like there could have been more details given on them working together or more into the investigations that Ann had access to later, its a very surface view book otherwise.

Jerome Brudos, kidnapped, strangled, and hung women from a hook in the celling in order to take pictures and satisfy his deviant need for necrophilia. At the same time he was a “loving” husband and father of two children. Bummer, I know.
Ann Rule painstakingly researched the killer’s life and the unfortunate that came in contact with him. She includes court records and interviews that enable the reader to form his/her own opinion. Ann Rule coherently guides us through a horror show of aberrant psychology and crime. Lust Killer is an aptly chosen title of this work in true crime. What’s more, Rule points at certain behaviors in men that may provide an “early warning system ” to help women avoid potentially dangerous relationships or situations.
The death of Ann Rule has been a great loss to all of us. Fortunately, she was a prolific writer and she left us such great works of true crime, Lust Killer is just one great example.
