An Ordinary Killer

An Ordinary Killer adeptly captures the ultimate success story in the intriguing world of forensic science and investigation. This amazing three-fold journey leads us over twenty-eight years and from the beginnings of two very important investigative techniques — DNA technology and the behavioral approach to criminal psychological profiling — to the arrest of a sadistic, predatory killer. Anthony Hornus' work takes a rare, compassionate look at detectives and families inside the oftentimes personally frustrating world of homicide investigation. The story also delves, in chilling detail, into the dark side of a man who could have been your next-door-neighbor.
