Justine recommends "Behold the Monster: Confronting America's Most Prolific Serial Killer" by Jillian Lauren


Behold the Monster is a look into Samuel Little, officially known as America's most prolific serial killer.  Although now dead, he confessed to 93 murders, 60 of which have been confirmed, as of 2023. Jillian Lauren, the author of this book, had a unique relationship to Little and often visited him in prison to help get information for detectives. Her findings are shocking and appalling. I could not believe she put up with him in interviews for as long as she did. However, I applaud her for her actions, as she gave a voice to many of the women who would have otherwise been forgotten.

This is a great book for any true crime aficionado wanting to learn more about Samuel Little.
