Eliot Ness and the Mad Butcher: Hunting America's Deadliest Unidentified Serial Killer at the Dawn of Modern Criminology

by Max Allan Collins Author and A. Brad Schwartz Author

Legendary crime fighter Eliot Ness famously took down Al Capone, but that was only the beginning of his story. As Public Safety Director of Cleveland, he was confronted by an early serial killer. The killer became known as the Cleveland Torso Murderer, and he terrorized the city for four years. Ness worked tirelessly to catch the killer, but was met with frustrating setbacks at every turn as the killer was incredibly skilled at covering his tracks, and seemed to know exactly how to elude the police. Eliot Ness and the Mad Butcher tells the story of this deadly cat-and-mouse game.
