Summary
In September of 1975, 14-year-old David McVicker is abducted while hitchhiking home from a friend’s house in Garden Grove, CA. His assailant, William Bonin, has an appetite for assaulting young men and boys, and just four short years after attacking David, Bonin embarks on an all out killing spree. David recounts in his own words his persistence and unfailing bravery in the mission to lock up the Freeway Killer, one of the most notoriously vicious serial killers to ever terrorize Southern California.
