The state of Louisiana was shocked to its core when a series of unexplained murders came to light in the state. Big Louisiana cities like New Orleans or perhaps even Baton Rouge might experience spikes in crime and even homicides, but this string of cold-blooded killings was different. Women were being targeted and preyed upon in a methodical manner by a person who was able to cruelly kill and then seamlessly blend back into society.
The good citizens of Louisiana were frightened and appalled, and soon they were referring to the suspected killer believed to be behind them as the “South Louisiana Serial Killer”. The killer's profile loomed large. What kind of monster would do this? It would only later be learned that the killer was a guy named Derrick Todd Lee. He was a native, a local yokel even.
So local in fact, that some of those whom he targeted would later recall that he approached them by stating, “You ain’t from around here, are you?”
Derrick Todd Lee, of course, didn’t begin his life as a killer, but he certainly ended it as one. This book chronicles this local, good-old-boy-gone-bad, and his descent into utter, murderous madness.
