Inside the mind of Australia's most deranged serial killer.During the early 1960's, Sydney was terrorised by a serial killer. William MacDonald's 'calling card' was to cut off each victim's penis and testicles with the skill of a surgeon. the circumstances that led to the MacDonald capture are as bizarre as the murders. the last of the victims was actually buried under the murderer's name and, if it wasn't for a chance sighting of MacDonald by one of his old workmates who had attended his funeral six months earlier, the grisly murders would have continued.Paul B. Kidd is an acknowledged authority on Australia's serial killers. He spent many hours interviewing MacDonald in prison, and probed deep into the murderer's mind to reveal why such unimaginable crimes were committed.Paul B. Kidd has also written Never to be Released, volumes 1 and 2 (volume 3, forthcoming).
