Critics Review

“Fast-paced tale of the search for a racist serial killer in the early days of criminal profiling…A taut, terrifying view of White supremacy taken to murderous extremes, now all too common.”

“John Douglas and Mark Olshaker, the authors of Mindhunter, return with a chilling true crime story that feels all too relevant in today’s climate, despite the fact that it covers a case from the 1970s.” — PopSugar“The authors write with clarity and authority as they lay out a devastating portrait of an unrepentant racist. This is a must read for those looking for insight into the minds of those instigating racial violence today.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review)“When it comes to true crime, nobody’s got war stories like [John] Douglas.” — Philadelphia Inquirer“Well-written, fascinating and suspenseful.” — Washington Times“When it comes to true crime, nobody’s got war stories like Douglas.” — Detroit News”This book was not only educational but terrifying. Franklin’s gone, but who is to say how many more Franklins are out there?” — Alabama Public Radio”Fast-paced tale of the search for a racist serial killer in the early days of criminal profiling…A taut, terrifying view of White supremacy taken to murderous extremes, now all too common.” — Kirkus Reviews
