In 1982, the body of Wendy Coffield is discovered floating near the sandy shore of Washington's Green River. Authorities have no idea that this tragic and violent death is only the beginning of a string of murders that will rock and terrify the Seattle area for two decades.
With her signature riveting prose and in-depth research, Ann Rule takes us behind the scenes of the search for the Green River Killer, a terrifying specter who ritualistically killed young women and eluded authorities for years. From seeking the help of incarcerated serial killer Ted Bundy to Ann Rule's horrifying realization that the killer she was writing about had attended her book signings, Green River, Running Red is the suspenseful and unforgettable "definitive narrative of the brutal and senseless crimes that haunted the Seattle area for decades" (Publishers Weekly).
Green River, Running Red: The Real Story of the Green River Killer--America's Deadliest Serial Murderer by Ann Rule I haven’t taken this long to read a book since It. Poor concentration levels didn’t help at all. Technically read each page 3x. Enjoyed it. https://t.co/Eai0Xry000

Green River Running Red by Ann Rule and American Predator by Maureen Callahan are well written and researched true crime books, and both scared the piss out of me.

As I finish reading #AnnRule's GREEN RIVER...RUNNING RED, about Gary Ridgway, the Green River Killer, I'm reminded of this great @CrimeReads essay by the equally awesome @cartoonsbyhil - https://crimereads.com/what-about-ann-rule/
