Dear Reader:

Some crime cases remain in our minds—and in our hearts—long after the jury has returned its verdict. With its shocking incidents of sex and violence, the case of serial killer Robert Lee Yates Jr. is one of the most compelling of all.

Respected family man, father of five, and Desert Storm veteran, Yates earned numerous medals for his nineteen-year military service. Yet, something compelled him to prey upon vulnerable women of high-risk lifestyles, shooting them in the head while they tried to satisfy his sexual desires. He left a trail of discarded bodies along well-traveled roads, but buried one victim right under his wife’s bedroom window.

In this newly updated edition of Body Count, Edgar Award–winning author Burl Barer provides new information and insights on this case. From his cell on death row in Washington State Penitentiary, Robert Lee Yates Jr. seeks redemption through religion. But for the friends and families of his victims—and for the law enforcement professionals who put him behind bars—his legacy of evil is beyond forgiveness.

Already hailed by experts, reviewers, and readers, Body Count will enthrall and amaze you. Sit back and enjoy a fascinating story, told by one of American’s finest investigative journalists.
