A True Story of Mass Murder in a Chicago Suburb.
Over a period of three years, John Wayne Gacy Jr sexually tortured and murdered 33 boys. His friends and neighbours in his unassuming Illinois community never suspected a thing. Gacy was a Jekyll-and-Hyde figure, leading an outwardly normal life, but secretly brutalising dozens of young men in a hidden lair, and concealing the bodies under the floorboards of his suburban home.
Through extensive personal interviews with those who knew Gacy, veteran true-crime writer Clifford Linedecker takes us on a shocking ride through Gacy's life until he was executed by lethal injection in 1994. Gruesome and terrifying, 'The Man Who Killed Boys' reveals stark terror set amid the daily lives of an ordinary community.
