After listening to the book by the defense attorney, "John Wayne Gacy: Defending a Monster" by Sam Amirante, this book shared the story from the other side of the legal spectrum. Interesting to hear how things look so different from each side. The facts are almost the same, the views in which they are presented are totally different, each book fills in the blanks from the other, not because either was wrong, just the hidden truthes from both side. I highly recommend listening to both, very well done books. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very well written. *by S***W on Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2015* I was 11 years old when Gacy was caught, and growing up about an hour or so from where this took place, it was in the newspapers every day. I knew about 90% of what had happened, but I was really interested to know how he was caught, some of the details around the findings, and how the court case went.Written by the States Attorney that led up the investigation and prosecution, this will take you through the entire ordeal, from how Gacy first became a suspect, to putting the pieces together for two search warrants, briefing the reader on his arrest in Iowa back in August of '67, to interrogation conversations, and finally the entire court room proceedings.Within this book you'll read first hand statements from Gacy as he describes how he lured young men to his home and killed them. Some, believe it or not, even dug their own graves; Gacy admits to all of it in great detail (I believe he thought he'd get off on the insanity defense and therefore held-back nothing on the details). Gacy was a very charismatic person with born leadership skills, was very good at getting what he wanted, and was able to manipulate a lot of people. Had it not been for the relentless pusuit for answers from the parents of victim 33 (Robert Piest), Gacy may have gone on for many more years undetected.My only complaint about the book is that Gacy actually had two accomplices, yet we don't find out what happened to them. Regardless, the book is about Gacy...I really don't see how anyone could write a better book. When it's written by the man himself that led the investigation and prosecution you pretty much are getting it direct from the source. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't be misled by the cover - this is a true crime GEM! *by N***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2012* (No spoilers here!) As an avid true crime fan, I bought this book a long time ago, and it sat on my shelf forever. I'll admit I was a little put off by the cover - the trashy tabloid look convinced me that this would be a poorly-written account of the most gruesome details in the Gacy case, a book hoping to make a buck off of shock factor. It was the OPPOSITE.Killer Clown is, quite honestly, one of the most well-written true crime books I've ever had the pleasure of reading. The writing is succinct, the perspective unique. It's not often you come across a book where you get an insight into a suspect's behavior WHILE they are being surveyed by police.As far as gore goes, this is a light read. It would make a great starter for someone who's interested in true crime but not thrilled at the idea of stomach-churning gore.My favorite part of the book (surprisingly, as it rarely is) was the trial portion. Sullivan conveys the workings of a high-profile trial in a way that makes them easy to understand - right down to simplifying legal jargon for the reader. For someone like myself, who writes fiction, the lessons in the inner workings of the prosecution were invaluable information.Killer Clown doesn't go for the throat and is not written to mimic best-selling fiction; it approaches and unfolds the Gacy case in much the same way police and attorneys are required to - with a watchful eye and persistence. If you're worried about being bored, don't be. The book switches tacks often enough to keep the reader engaged, and leaves you wondering what it must have been like for that police surveillance team - a group of men who were both courted and deceived by one of the most infamous serial killers of all time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.id/products/5676226-killer-clown-the-john-wayne-gacy-murders](https://www.desertcart.id/products/5676226-killer-clown-the-john-wayne-gacy-murders) --- *Product available on Desertcart Indonesia* *Store origin: ID* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
