The twelve-year rampage of “Missoula Mauler” Wayne Nance, the serial sex killer who terrorized Montana—and the shocking end to his murder spree. To his neighbors, Wayne Nance, a furniture mover from Missoula, Montana, appeared to be an affable, considerate, and trustworthy guy. No one knew that Nance was the “Missoula Mauler,” a psychopath responsible for a series of sadistic sex slayings that … sex slayings that rocked the idyllic town between 1974 and 1986.
Nance’s only requirement for murder was accessibility—a preacher’s wife, a teenage runaway, a female acquaintance, a married couple. Putting on a friendly façade, he could easily gain his victims’ trust. Then, one September night, thirty-year-old Nance pushed his luck, preying on a couple who lived to tell the tale.
A true story with an incredible twist, written by former Wall Street Journal editor John Coston and complete with photos, To Kill and Kill Again reveals the disturbing compulsions of a charming serial killer who fooled everyone he knew, stumped the authorities, terrified a community, and very nearly got away with it.

YIKES! So close to home! Reading regional stories are just that much more entertaining to me. Worth the read.
Just plain scary.
I enjoy this genre and had to read this since I lived in that area of Montana. Well written reporting of actual case.
This book was all over the place, timewise. Hard to keep track
This is a good true crime, if you are into such. The author delivers with a well written narrative and character development and does not go too much into unnecessary details. It is of course a sad story but I will say this, the ending is very climatic and different than many true crime reads.
