About this item
In this profoundly chilling account, Detective Kim Mager, a real-life version of Clarice Starling, recounts how she brought down one of Ohio’s most infamous serial killers, Shawn Grate.
On September 13, 2016, Ashland, Ohio, was rocked by a harrowing 911 call from a woman claiming to be kidnapped. The captor was Shawn Grate, a serial killer later dubbed “The Ladykiller” by the press. The key to his conviction and death sentence lay in his extensive recorded confessions—confessions that were extracted by Detective Kim Mager.
An expert in sex offenses, Detective Mager was assigned to Grate’s case immediately upon his arrest. Grate, convinced he could exert his manipulative control over her as he had over his victims, demanded to speak with Mager repeatedly. However, he underestimated her resolve.
Over eight grueling days, Mager conducted a series of intense interviews, risking her life to confront this malevolent predator. Through a meticulous psychological strategy and a lethal game of wits, she managed to extract his confessions to five murders, multiple sexual assaults, and kidnappings across Ohio.
The Hunger to Kill offers a deeply personal and shocking glimpse into one of the most appalling criminal cases in American history. Co-authored with New York Times bestselling author Lisa Pulitzer, this gripping narrative takes readers behind the scenes of Mager’s relentless pursuit of justice and the terrifying journey to bring Grate’s reign of terror to an end.
