Official synopsis Publisher
A compelling examination of the psychology and motives behind one of the most notorious serial killers of the twentieth century.
Ted Bundy, a failed law student and lone drifter, raped and murdered at least thirty girls and young women in five different US states.
Despite his apparent charm and intelligence and seemingly normal relationships with women, he conducted a brutal killing spree between 1974 and 1978. This was the decade during which ‘criminal profiling’ was initially developed and the term ‘serial killer’ was first used by law-enforcement agencies.
True crime writers Tanya Farber and Jeremy Daniel examine how this charming man, who was able to function so well in society, could conduct these horrific crimes.
They also uncover the cult of ‘celebrity’ that followed Bundy through the first televised trial in American history – and why his personality and profile has spawned so many films and TV dramas, including Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, in 2019, starring Zac Efron.
