Burned Alive by Kieran Crowley
March 1, 1995. Beautiful, bubbly, 20-year-old Kim Antonakos was returning to her Brooklyn apartment after a night of clubbing with a friend. But on her way home in the early morning darkness, Kim was abducted-and her mysterious kidnappers would be the last people to see her alive. A cold mastermind had ordered Kim to be bound, gagged and left in the freezing basement of an abandoned house, hoping to extract ransom from Tommy Antonakos, her wealthy computer executive father. When plans fell through, he and his henchmen panicked, returned to the basement and doused a near-frozen Kim with gasoline, setting her on fire. What would drive the kidnappers to commit such a cruel and senseless murder? And how were the murderers finally snared?
Kieran Crowley is the New York Times bestselling author of THE SURGEON'S WIFE and BURNED ALIVE, and an award-winning reporter for the New York Post. His investigative reporting on a series of dismemberment murders of prostitutes helped lead homicide detectives to serial killer Robert Shulman, who told police after his arrest that he halted his killing spree when he read a description of himself and his car in one of Crowley's stories. His investigative reporting into the crimes of the Zodiac Killer helped crack that unsolved case and resulted in Crowley's book, SLEEP MY LITTLE DEAD. Crowley has covered hundreds of trials and thousands of murders, including the assassination of John Lennon, as well as the cases of Amy Fisher, Katie Beers, the Long Island Railroad Massacre, and serial killer Joel Rifkin.
