I know who you are : how an amateur DNA sleuth unmasked the Golden State Killer and changed crime fighting forever / Barbara Rae-Venter.

Summary:

"The amateur DNA sleuth who solved one of the most infamous cold cases in American history--the Golden State Killer crime spree--tells the incredible true story of how she did it, and explains how her methods have forever changed criminal investigations. In the span of just a few years, Barbara Rae-Venter went from researching her family history as a retiree to finding a serial killer who had baffled law enforcement for decades. I Know Who You Are tracks her improbable journey to becoming the nation's leading authority in investigative genetic genealogy, and to identifying the Golden State Killer--who had evaded authorities for forty-four years--in just sixty-three days. It is a story of relentless curiosity, of constant invention and reinvention, and of recognizing that we may not be who we thought we were"-- Provided by publisher.
