An Argentinian writer captures the voice of a man who in 1982 murdered four taxi drivers without any apparent motive, using interviews, forensic documents, and newspaper clippings to bring his story to life.
What The Reviewers Say
Melogno’s life in prison in the wake of sentencing provides compelling stories about the brutality he witnessed along with coping mechanisms necessary to insure survival. This is a true-crime book that pulls no punches in covering a killer, but doesn’t skimp on humanity, either. A solid effort not to be missed..
... a fascinating profile.
Busqued unnerves and entertains readers with this forensic tale synthesized from more than 90 hours of dialogue with a serial killer.
