"The title of this book is Don't Look Behind You. My message to you is do be aware of what is happening around you. Look back, to the side, and straight ahead with your head held high and walk with purpose. Do look behind you, and have your subconscious programmed so that you will react automatically should danger suddenly confront you. You are the very first line of your own defense, and you can save your own life."

This is the first book I've read by Ann Rule and certainly not the last. I really loved the story-telling, especially in the second story. The only drawback is the choice of the stories... Putting all these stories together in the same book ended up a little bit depressing. The stories about sex crimes and rapists at the end were also kind of shocking but thankfully justice was served.
