Summary
Serial killers rarely travel internationally. So in the early 1990s, when Los Angeles detectives began to find bodies of women strangled with their own bras, it didn't occur to them at first to make a connection with the bodies being uncovered in the woods outside of Vienna, Austria. The LAPD waited for the killer to strike again. Meanwhile, in Austria, the police followed what few clues they had. The case intrigued many reporters, but few as keenly as Jack Unterweger, a local celebrity. His expertise on Vienna's criminal underworld was hard-earned: he had been sentenced to life in jail as a young man. But while incarcerated, he began to write--and his work earned him an early release. Though he now traveled in the highest circles, he had a secret life. He was killing again, and in the greatest of ironies, reporting on the very crimes he had committed.--From publisher description
