• Sommario/riassunto: <p>People simply will not accept the fact that there is such a thing as a homicidal mind, Truman Capote once said, People who would kill as easily as they would write a bad check. But people like this do exist-and in <i>Homicidal,</i> journalist and crime writer Paul Alexander profiles one of the most brutal homicidal minds in criminal history.</p><p>According to allegations, Lonnie Franklin Jr. killed at least ten women-maybe more-in the Los Angeles area over 25 years. Because of serious mistakes in the LAPDs handling of the case, Franklin stayed active for decades-a terrifyingly normal serial killer next door who met his victims mostly through random encounters.</p><p>The best-selling author of true crime titles <i>Accused, Murdered, </i>and <i>Mistried,</i> Alexander delves deep into law enforcement records and collects never-before-heard firsthand accounts to cast new light on this complicated case. Combining the attention to detail of a crime journalist with the eloquent style of a literary master, Alexander will leave you wondering-could you recognize the serial killer next door?</p&gt
