“A well-written book of grime that every true crime reader must have on their shelves or reading device. Compelling and captivating.” —RJ Parker, bestselling author of Escaped Killer
A writer of history and true crime, Kevin M. Sullivan is the author of nine books, a former investigative journalist for both print and online media, and is a recognized authority on serial sex killer, Ted Bundy. Indeed, his "break out" book, The Bundy Murders: A Comprehensive History, published by McFarland in 2009, was the catalyst that brought him much attention in the true crime world, leading to numerous radio programs and contacts from documentarians both here in the United States and the United Kingdom. Portions of this work also appear in the college textbook, Abnormal Psychology: Clinical Perspectives on Psychological Disorders, published by McGraw-Hill in November 2012.
