The Jeffrey Dahmer Story: An American Nightmare by Donald A. Davis

3.0

fast-paced

---

Ryan Murphy's show, Dahmer, provided more detail than this book. From what I can gather, the book was released fairly soon after Dahmer's apprehension and consequent death, and this is reflected in the book's vagueness. There must have been an overwhelming desire to publish one of the earliest Dahmer books. The information on the victims was wrapped up by the halfway point, yet there was information on other killers, when this page space could've been dedicated to victims instead. There were a lot of discussions that were only vaguely addressed here and that's disappointing.
