The Night Stalker by Philip Carlo
The Night Stalker: The Life and Crimes of Richard Ramirez by Philip Carlo. 592 pages.
I read it in less than 2 days.
Enough said, right?
If not – read on:
Richard Ramirez is the most unique serial killer that I have ever read about.
Unlike most serial killers who have a “preferred” victim (ie, Blond, Female, and/or young), Ramirez was an equal opportunity rapist/killer.
With Carlo’s book, readers get inside the mind of Ramirez and are offered an up close view of the crimes.
And, as a result, readers will most likely never sleep with a window open or an unlocked door again…irregardless if they live in the big city or small town.
Simply put: fascinating. A book well written, and EXTREMELY up close and personal in all aspects.
From the crimes, to the trial, to the Ramirez “groupies.”
Definitely a must-read for true crime fans.
