The Stranger Beside Me: The Inside Story of Serial Killer Ted Bundy by Ann Rule

dark informative tense slow-paced

3.25

On the whole this is a very informative read about Bundy from a more personal angle than you would normally hear about. I didn't know if it was supposed to show Bundy's mental state or Rule's realisation of Bundy's guilt but at the beginning all the victims are described and then briefly described when they go missing with no real detail but then the Florida crimes go almost into graphic detail. There is a lot about the trails which is to be expected as this is what Rule was used to write about but I would have liked to hear more details about the investigation. On the whole an interesting read with a unique perspective.
