I have no idea why more people aren’t talking about this book? This book was any true crime junkies dream! The psychological components in this book are amazing.
Jason Moss is a brilliant young man.
The things he got Gacy to talk about were crazy. Highly recommend this book!

After feeling challenged by a professor who seemed to claim there was no unique way to approach a paper on serial killers, Jason decided to contact some of the most notorious ones by mail and start correspondence to develop into his final. He concocts elaborate characters based on what he knows and had researched on each killer, becoming someone each time that he feels the killer in question will open up to enough to start a line of conversation. His ultimate goal is to get a murderer to confess their crime to him. As he communicates with Lucas, Manson, Dahmer, and Ramirez, though weird, nothing really takes you in until his writing with Gacy goes further in character and communication than he was able to take the others. I came across The Last Victim when I saw the movie based on the book. I was intrigued with the storyline and was even more interested when I realized the movie was based on a book and was a true story. At the end of the movie there was a small snippet of Jason Moss when he had been on a talk show and after seeing some actual footage of him, I decided I wanted to read this book. I found the book's title and promptly bought it on my ereader. I devoured this book, reading through it at lightning speed, unable to put it down. You find yourself easily lost in the characters Jason created to converse with these killers. The book is seriously chilling if you can imagine the mindset of the author as everything is occurring. Fantastic read.

Jason Moss steps inside the incredibly disturbing mind of a serial killer and takes his readers along for the ride in THE LAST VICTIM. A large majority of the story is focused on John Wayne Gacy, but there are bits and pieces of the others (Richard Ramirez, Jeffrey Dahmer, Charles Manson, Henry Lee Lucas) interspersed throughout.
