Richard Daniel Starrett was the dangerous visitor for too many unlucky young women in Georgia and South Carolina in the late 1980s. Answering \"for sale\" ads in the classifieds, he was a buyer hunting for victims, not bargains, and he paid in grim coin: rape, kidnapping, murder. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Because of his articulate intelligence and prestigious job, no one suspected this \"golden boy\" of such heinous acts. This gripping, intimately detailed account by Pulitzer Prize-winning authors probes every tortured thought and twisted urge of a \"boy-next-door murderer\"--as well as the dynamics of the model family that shaped him. The result is both a stunning portrait of a diseased mind and the moving story of a loving family's emotional nightmare and painful disintegration.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteven Naifeh\u003c\/b\u003e is a graduate of Harvard Law School.
