This is a horrifying true story. From 1976 to 1986, a mysterious and violent man committed crimes in California, committing 50 rapes and 13 murders in ten years. Then he disappeared and never committed another crime. During this period, multiple police officers and detectives, investigating more than 8,000 people, launched a manhunt, but the murderer was never caught. Thirty years later (2016), criminology reporter Michelle McNamara created a website called "True Crime Diary" and traveled around to investigate, determined to find the "Golden State Killer." "I Will Escape into the Dark" provides a clear record of this special period in American history. It provides an almost straightforward account of the horrific crimes committed by the "Golden State Killer". This is also a portrayal of a journalist's persistence and relentless pursuit of the truth, which also helped the police uncover the Golden State Killer.
