In the spirit of Devil in the White City comes a true detective tale of the highest standard: the haunting story of Eliot Ness' forgotten final case - his years-long hunt for "The Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run", a serial killer who terrorized Cleveland through the Great Depression and tormented Ness to his dying breath.

Misnamed. Just a Ness biography
Reviewed: 08-10-21
The book is well researched and constructed but the title is essentially clickbait. The content regarding the Torso Murderer is scant and presented almost with disinterest. As a Ness biography, it is enlightening and informative. As a contrasting look at the titular case, it is minimalist at best.
