"Like a good crime writer, Ms. Rae-Venter has a gift for storytelling. . . . Her scientific explanations are concise and her revelations are dramatic. I Know Who You Are is a remarkably exciting book. . . . Her description of the obsessive zeal with which she sought this personification of evil echoes the dedication displayed by such fictional police detectives as California novelist Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch." -- The Wall Street Journal "A lucid and entertaining detective story . . . Rae-Venter is a scientist at heart, and driven by a scientist's particular, almost possessive hunger for knowledge." -- Slate "A gripping story tracing the hundreds of hours spent rifling through people's family ties to find killers and identify bodies." -- Nature "In a very crowded field of hard-to-distinguish true-crime offerings, Rae-Venter's title provides a unique and edge-of-your seat insider's account of the case she calls, accurately so, 'a dividing line between the past and the future' for law enforcement." -- ABA Journal " I Know Who You Are is a true-crime masterpiece written by a cold-case-cracking master.
