Son of Sam
Jack Hunter
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
During the sweltering summer of 1977, New York City was gripped by fear. A serial killer was stalking the streets, targeting young couples in parked cars with a .44 caliber revolver. With each murder came taunting letters left for the police and media—signed “Son of Sam.” What followed was one of the most intense manhunts in American history.
Son of Sam: The Chilling True Crime Saga of David Berkowitz and His Summer of Terror explores the horrifying case of David Berkowitz, a seemingly ordinary postal worker who claimed to be under the command of a demonic dog. Over thirteen months, Berkowitz killed six people, wounded seven others, and sent shockwaves through the nation with his erratic motives and chilling confessions.
This audiobook delves deep into the timeline of terror—from the first shooting to Berkowitz’s arrest, trial, and life behind bars. It examines the psychological profile of the killer, the media frenzy that turned him into a household name, and the long-lasting impact his crimes had on public fear, policing, and the cultural psyche of 1970s America.
Packed with meticulous detail, psychological insight, and haunting accounts, this is a must-listen for true crime fans. Son of Sam is more than a story of murder—it's a portrait of madness, manipulation, and the dark allure of evil in the heart of a city under siege.
