Overview

For eight relentless years, Sheriff David Reichert chased a ghost along the misty banks of Washington's Green River. What began as a single body in the current grew into one of the most chilling manhunts in American history-forty-nine women gone, a city terrified, and a killer who seemed to vanish into the fog. Chasing the Green River Killer: The True Crime Story of Sheriff Reichert's Pursuit takes readers deep inside the investigation that tested every limit of faith, science, and humanity. From the first gruesome discoveries in 1982 to the revolutionary DNA breakthroughs two decades later, Reichert's obsession became a life's mission. This is not the story of a monster-it's the story of the man who refused to let him win. Through exhaustion, heartbreak, and years of silence, Reichert fought to give names back to the forgotten and justice to the lost. Told with vivid realism and haunting emotion, this book reconstructs how the case transformed modern forensics and scarred one detective's soul. The result is a portrait of justice born not from triumph, but from persistence. Inside You'll Discover The chilling early days of the Green River murders-and how they paralyzed Seattle.
