If you are looking for insight on the killer or the murders, Roadside Prey is big disappointment. It’s written from an investigative point of view and a very dry one at that. I have read many true crime books and my favorite ones are those that do research into the killer’s background that spans from childhood to adulthood. This book has none of that and is very amateurishly written.

A book well worth reading!

This is the story of Robert Ben Rhoades, a trucker who preyed on hitchhikers and women he picked up at truckstops. He tortured, then sometimes killed them. Also included is an in-depth look at the woman who was first charmed by him, then slowly exposed to his darker appetites, and went on to marry him and became one of this victims. I also liked the author's detailed explanations of how facial reconstruction can be done from a skull. All in all, a very good book.
