Four women dead, their bodies charred and horribly mutilated. Now Dennis McDougal, acclaimed author of the spellbinding true crime tour de force Mother's Day, brings his considerable investigative and narrative skills to the Yosemite murders to give you the most complete account of what really happened. Drawing on several personal conversations with the confessed killer and interviews with the victims' families, McDougal presents the definitive story, and answers many lingering questions. What demons drove this quiet handyman and nudist colony habitue to burn, mutilate, and murder four women he didn't even know?nbsp;nbsp;How did he overpower a woman and two teenaged girls?nbsp;nbsp;And most disturbing, did the glory-seeking FBI actually hinder the investigation, leaving the killer free to kill once more before he was caught?

other lodgers in my wing of rooms. Around midnight, I woke up
and started to wonder if my room was very secure. There were sliding doors to the outside, as well as a front door. I got up and checked the sliding doors, but was not strong enough to tell
if the lock was on or off. I didn't like that there was no safety
rod in the door's floor track. I checked the front door, and it was locked, and I secured the chain. I finally went back to sleep, but had a creepy feeling about that room even through the next day, and was glad we were leaving the area.
This book does a very good job of describing not only what happened, but the small town feeling and society common in the Sierra's, even in my larger town of South Lake Tahoe, California. ( )
