Robert Keppel of the FBI conducted a series of prison interviews with Ted Bundy, supposedly to obtain informaton on how a killer thinks in order to catch the Green River Killer. What emerged from the interviews was a chilling account of how Bundy committed his own crimes. The book chronicles Bundy's attempt to manipulate the system to postpone his execution. The reader will be impressed with Keppel's skill in obtaining a look into the mind of this narcissistic and completely remorseless serial killer. An engaging read for those who like the true-crime genre!

Disturbing book in practice and theroy.Ted Bundy was treated like a media God instead of the Cold blooded killer that he was,I find it laughable that Ted Bundy would be able to shed any light on how to catch another killer or what motivated the green river killer. I read this out of curiousity and came away from it mad and well madder.This was ridiculous but it is a great example of what not to do in a murder investigation and gee the importance and power Ted must of felt by being ask to participate in this.Lets hope we never glamorize and play to the ego of another brutal monster the way we did Ted Bundy.
