State of Fear: The life of a serial killer

By Kelly Creighton

What do forty years look like in the life of a serial killer?

Boston, 1967. The Boston Strangler - who has terrorised the city for years, killing thirteen women - has escaped from prison. It is all anyone can talk about. Nine-year-old Daly Sprat lives in the projects in 'Southie' with his heavy-handed father, doting mother, and perfect little sister. They follow The Strangler's escape with excitement and fear.

Daly Sprat's intrigue with murder has begun.

State of Fear is the vivid, unflinching story of the life of a notorious serial killer.

Haunting, literary, and achingly human.
