Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" is the culmination of Michelle McNamara's life's work of investigating the legend of the Golden State Killer. It's a journal, it's a true crime file, and it’s a tale too gruesome to be true. The man McNamara christens The Golden State Killer raped and/or killed over 50 victims between 1976 and 1986. Her findings were so haunting, that they resulted in her early death from a heart condition. Her publication unfinished, her husband Patton Oswald and her assistant set out to finish her work for publication.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13957955</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13957955</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Media, IRB]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/13957955981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781638152958/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll Be Gone in the Dark]]></title><description><![CDATA["A masterful true crime account of the Golden State Killer-- the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California for over a decade-- from Michelle McNamara, the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case. 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. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area. Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer." Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was. At the time of the crimes, the Golden State Killer was between the ages of eighteen and thirty, Caucasian, and athletic-- capable of vaulting tall fences. He always wore a mask.  After choosing a victim-- he favored suburban couples-- he often entered their home when no one was there, studying family pictures, mastering the layout. He attacked while they slept, using a flashlight to awaken and blind them. Though they could not recognize him, his victims recalled his voice: a guttural whisper through clenched teeth, abrupt and threatening."--Amazon.com.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2212297</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S218C2212297</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McNamara, Michelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2212297218</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>One Woman&apos;s Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062319784/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll Be Gone in the Dark]]></title><description><![CDATA[Features new material on the Golden State Killer's case and an updated afterword by Patton Oswalt.

	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. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area.
	Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer." Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was.
	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. Utterly original and compelling, it has been hailed as a modern true crime classic-one which fulfilled Michelle's dream: helping unmask the Golden State Killer.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13326081</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13326081</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McNamara, Michelle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/13326081981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>One Woman&apos;s Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062916310/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll Be Gone in the Dark]]></title><description><![CDATA[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.
