Publisher's Synopsis
Beginning in the early 1970s a quiet, troubled 22-year-old man named Gerald Eugene Stano scoured the sun-baked streets and highways of Florida for young women; high-school cheerleaders, cocktail waitresses, co-eds, prostitutes, hitch-hikers - he wasn't particular. They would all end up victims of his hideous desire to kill.;By the spring of 1980 he'd murdered 33 women and remained free to keep on killing. But his bloody rampage ended on the night of 25th March when Donna Hensley, a Daytona prostitute, managed to escape and inform the police. Stano was arrested for aggravated assault, and within three hours of interrogation had begun a dramatic confession.;Based on ten years of research, this is an account of the gruesome career and twisted psyche of Gerald Stano.
