The Grim Sleeper : the lost women of South Central Cover Image Book Book

The Grim Sleeper : the lost women of South Central / Christine Pelisek.

Pelisek, Christine, (author.).

Summary:

In 2008, Canadian-born journalist Christine Pelisek shed light on a suspected killer of women in South Central Los Angeles who had been active since the 1980s. Dubbing him "The Grim Sleeper" for his possible long break between murders, Christine was the only one who put the pieces together after the L.A. coroner reluctantly handed her a list of thirty-eight possibly linked homicides in 2006. Alleged serial killer Lonnie Franklin Jr. is currently charged with ten murders, but investigators think he is responsible for at least twenty more.
