Twenty years after shocking the world with the Black Dahlia murder, could Dr. George Hill Hodel have returned as a killer unlike anyone had ever known?

Former LAPD detective Steve Hodel has devoted the last decade to examining the
fascinating and mysterious life of his father, Dr. George Hill Hodel. His findings indicate
that Hodel was one of the most prolific serial killers in history, beginning as a young man
and continuing to kill undetected throughout his life, including his possible involvement in
Chicago's "Lipstick Murders" and the series of killings in 1960s California by the man who
called himself Zodiac.

In Most Evil, Hodel compiles never-before-seen visual, circumstantial, and forensic evidence that reveals his father as a serial killer who may have been responsible for some of the most infamous murders of the last century. -
