From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ann Rule, "America's best true-crime writer" ( Kirkus Reviews ), her unforgettable classic account of the horrifying murders in the Pacific Northwest and her shock when she discovered her friend--Ted Bundy--was not only a suspect but also one of the most prolific serial killers in American history. Meeting in 1971 at a Seattle crisis clinic, Ann Rule and Ted Bundy developed a friendship and correspondence that would span the rest of his life. Rule had no idea that when they went their separate ways, their paths would cross again under shocking circumstances. The Stranger Beside Me is Rule's compelling firsthand account of not just her relationship with Bundy, but also his life--from his complicated childhood to the media circus of his trials. Astonishing in its intimacy and with Rule's clear-eyed prose, you can't help but share in her growing horror at discovering that her friend was one of the most notorious American serial killers. An unforgettable and haunting work of research, journalism, and personal memories, The Stranger Beside Me is "as dramatic and chilling as a bedroom window shattering at midnight" ( The New York Times ).

Imagine working with a handsome, mature, caring young man and liking him. Now imagine that you find out that the nice young man you?ve spent many evenings working with is responsible for the deaths of more than thirty women. In this book, Anne Rule takes you through her own journey of shock and denial when she finds out that the nice young man she had once worked with is a serial killer. In characteristic style, she examines the psychological aspects of Ted Bundy?s crimes, brings the killer and his victims to life, and makes you wonder about the boy next door.

Strange but true
Easy to read and digest. Ms Rule's other books are worth reading too.
