The Stranger Beside Me
Rule's true crime masterpiece chronicles her personal friendship with Ted Bundy while he was an active serial killer. Beyond the horror, the work explores themes of evil, deception, trust, and the masks people wear. It's a profound psychological study of how evil can hide in plain sight and the limits of human understanding.
