Neighbors trusted neighbors, and doors were left unlocked. But beneath the facade of 1970s normalcy, a subhuman predator was cultivating a masterpiece of malice. He was a devoted husband, a protective father, and a pillar of the community. To the world, he was Dennis Rader. To his victims, he was a nightmare without a face.
