A dramatic and compelling true-crime psychological thriller

This incredible story shows how John Douglas tracked and participated in the hunt for one of the most notorious serial killers in US history. For 31 years a man who called himself BTK (Bind, Torture, Kill) terrorized the city of Wichita, Kansas, sexually assaulting and strangling a series of women, taunting the police with frequent communications, and bragging about his crimes to local newspapers and TV stations. After disappearing for nine years, he suddenly reappeared, complaining that no one was paying enough attention to him and claiming that he had committed other crimes for which he had not been given credit. When he was ultimately captured, BTK was shockingly revealed to be Dennis Rader, a 61-year-old married man with two children.

I don’t know who they found to read this, but he needs a new day job. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed other books by John Douglas but found this drier- and the narrator is a hot mess. Pronouncing it “Quan-TEE- co” is absolutely absurd- and makes me think this wasn’t ever really checked or edited. He’s also monotonous and grating.

“Quan-TEE-co”?!?!

A great dive into the sick and perverted mind of BTK. I couldn't stop listening

it was so hard to listen to this book given how terribly it was read. the number of mispronounced words and high schooler reading out loud vibe just too much

narrator was awful

Really unprofessional, multiple mispronunciations from the narrator. Would not recommend purchasing the audiobook, written version should be okay.

Terrible Narrator

Interesting book but the narrator needs some help

John Douglas’s memoirs of his days as a profiler and his insights into the criminal mind are spellbinding and always hard to put down. But the nitpicker in me finds it very hard to hear the multiple mispronunciations by this narrator … I mean , how many times does someone say Quan-teek-o before someone says “Um,hey, no one pronounces it that way” . And believe me , that’s by far not the only words this guy doesn’t know .

Great story, great insight ,hard read

I almost stopped listening because the narration was so poor. Stilted, unnatural, and with many words mispronounced. I'm glad I stuck with it, though, because it is a very interesting story.

Great read, but the narrator was terrible

Good information for those who require a deep dive on this type of offender. But the narrator mispronounced even simple words. "QuanTEEco" are you kidding me?

Good information but...

I think the writing was good. Maybe not the best one Douglas has done but good nonetheless. The narration was awful. Multiple mispronounced words, robotic flow, just not good at all. He did not do Douglas' words justice.

Interesting story

Info is good but the narrator must have come at a discount, mispronouncing several words. It bugged me in otherwise good book.
