A number of years ago I was in the hospital and becoming quite bored. My thoughtful wife took the liberty of going to our local library and getting this writer a number of books...one of which was authored by Ann Rule.

I remembered her from having read her story about Ted Bundy, which by the way I had read on vacation in Florida. I have been a huge fan ever since. Unfortunately for me, she writes so well that I become upset during her narrative, because I know there is an impending death. Yes, I know these people have already died, but I have just been introduced to them.

On a side note I was in Florida when Bundy was executed, quite frankly those celebrating his impending death seemed to act in a most inhuman way. Bar B Q's with Bundy burgers, etc. Let's learn from ours and others mistakes, celebrate life, make the world better not worse. That is what I get from Ann Rule's stories.
