Summary
Ted Bundy: Conversations with a Killer is a book written by Stephen Michaud and Hugh Aynesworth. The book tells the story of Ted Bundy, a notorious Serial Killer who confessed to killing 30 females before his execution in Florida. Bundy made this confession in a series of death row interviews conducted with him while in prison (Michaud and Aynesworth, 78). Obtained from the exclusive tape-recorded interviews with Bundy, whose killing spree left more than thirty women dead in four years (1974 and 1978), the book exposes the image of one of the cruellest killers in the history of America(Michaud and Aynesworth, 89). It also offers an exceptional peek into the killer's mind while he was on death row.
In the book, Bundy discloses the details of his crimes, reveals how he attracted his targets, narrates how he successfully achieved his mission, and recounted his previous jailbreaks. Bundy's shocking last-minute confessions to journalists Michaud and Aynesworth provide a terrible insight into the depraved mind of America's most infamous serial killer. The book describes Bundy as a master manipulator and a cruel monster whose gruesome murders lead to the deaths of many innocent women.
