| Publisher Description: In Tallahassee, Florida, early one cold winter morning in 1978, a mad man entered the Chi Omega sorority house near the Florida State University campus, and viciously attacked four women. Two would die. A fifth woman was brutally attacked just blocks away. Authorities urgently searched for the killer leaving no stone unturned. If psychics provided persuasive links to the killer, why not use them? Joseph, a young music student, has visions of the killer. Lieutenant George Brand, an investigator on the task force, promised the victims' families he will do what it takes to catch the assailant. Joseph brings his visions to Brand and, within weeks, Theodore Robert Bundy is arrested. Helen Baxter, a young newspaper reporter, is unexpectedly approached by Joseph, who claimed to have provided key psychic details that led to the capture of Bundy. Would Bundy have been captured without Joseph's help? Was there a psychic link between Joseph and Bundy? This is the true story of the hunt for, and capture of, Theodore Robert Bundy. |
Contributor Bio(s): Lehmann, Susan Waller: - "Susan Waller Lehmann hails from Miami, FL and attended Florida State University. She discovered writing and journalism while in college. In 1981, she refused a job with the nascent CNN thinking Who on earth would want to watch a 24-hour news channel? Her path in life now determined by the idea that she would be a real journalist instead, she put her interview skills to work as a writer, publisher, private investigator, and death penalty mitigation expert. Perhaps because the temperate climate of the South attracts crazies, her life intersected with two serial killers, and, as a result, her first two books recount her stories of Ted Bundy in the aftermath of the 1978 Chi Omega murders, and Daniel Rolling during the 1990 Gainesville Student murders. Her simultaneous professions inform her non-fiction writing, samples of which have earned her a 1996 Eaton Literary Award and a 2016 Utah Original Writing Competition Honorable Mention in Non-Fiction. As a result, she prefers to delve into her wide-ranging experiences as a journalist, private investigator, and death penalty mitigation expert. There ought to be a good story or two in there somewhere. What's that old saw? Truth is stranger than fiction. In 2012 she started a new private investigation agency - because, when you think about it, there is no better way to distract yourself from the hard work of writing than dealing with cheating spouses, tracking down dead-beat parents, and sitting through interminable night-time surveillance operations. She now lives with her husband and two well-loved felines in the beautiful northern Wasatch Mountains. She occasionally yearns for thunderstorms, trees, and the ocean. Her emotional response does not extend to humidity, cockroaches or fleas." |
