Stephen King  A masterful true crime account of the Golden State Killer - the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorised California for over a decade - from Michelle McNamara, the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case.  'You'll be silent forever, and I'll be gone in the dark.'  For more than ten years, a mysterious and violent predator committed fifty sexual assaults in Northern California before moving south, where he perpetrated ten sadistic murders.

I'll Be Gone in the Dark - the masterpiece McNamara was writing at the time of her sudden death - offers an atmospheric snapshot of a moment in American history and a chilling account of a criminal mastermind and the wreckage he left behind. It is also a portrait of a woman's obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth. Framed by an introduction by Gillian Flynn and an afterword by her husband, Patton Oswalt, the book was completed by Michelle's lead researcher and a close colleague. Utterly original and compelling, it is destined to become a true crime classic - and may at last unmask the Golden State Killer.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49514294968593,"sku":"GOR008879600","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49557335671057,"sku":"GOR009280142","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49609307717905,"sku":"GOR009255586","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50235867103505,"sku":"CIN057134514XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50353727406353,"sku":"CIN057134514XA","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52103990608145,"sku":"CIN057134514XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/057134514X.jpg?v=1751423840"},{"product_id":"i-ll-be-gone-in-the-dark-book-michelle-mcnamara-9780062319791","title":"I'll Be Gone in the Dark","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTHE BASIS FOR THE MAJOR 6-PART HBO® DOCUMENTARY SERIES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e | Maureen Corrigan, \u003ci\u003eNPR\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003ePaste\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eSeattle Times\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eEsquire\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eSlate\u003c\/i\u003e | Buzzfeed | \u003ci\u003eJezebel\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003ePhiladelphia Inquirer\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ci\u003eBustle \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinner of the Goodreads Choice Awards for Nonfiction | Anthony Award Winner | SCIBA Book Award Winner | Finalist for the Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime | Longlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Excellence\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe haunting true story of the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California during the 70s and 80s, and of the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case--which was solved in April 2018.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction by Gillian Flynn * Afterword by Patton Oswalt\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"A brilliant genre-buster. . . .
