Absolutely chilling, suspenseful, intriguing and heartbreaking all at once.
An insightful look at the process of identifying the victims and their attackers and seeing the story unfold from the eyes of each person involved. It's most amazing how certain events lead to the missing yet eventual capture of the real killer. ( )

Very gruesome, yet true account of the first murder case solved by genetic fingerprinting in England. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553282816, Mass Market Paperback)

Fifteen-year-old Lynda Mann's savagely raped and strangled body is found along a shady footpath near the English village of Narborough.  Though a massive 150-man dragnet is launched, the case remains unsolved.  Three years later the killer strikes again, raping and strangling teenager Dawn Ashforth only a stone's throw from where Lynda was so brutally murdered.  But it will take four years, a scientific breakthrough, the largest manhunt in British crime annals, and the blooding of more than four thousand men before the real killer is found.
