As such, this is the first book in a new series of books, whose aim is to bring new revelations to the public about Bundy, the victims, the murders, and … [Read more...]

I’ve been writing books for 26 years. I’m a nonfiction writer and my world has always been one of finding the truth where possible, and that drive for accuracy has been with me the whole time.

The Allure of Human Monsters
Have you ever considered why people read true crime? I am not surprised if you haven’t spent a lot of time thinking about it, but if you enjoyed the tales of monsters as a child (Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolfman, etc), there's likely a connection.

WHAT A JOURNEY THIS HAS BEEN
“What a journey this has been!” is a thought that crossed my mind the other day. I was finishing up my fourth Ted Bundy book when it popped into my mind.
