While Wisconsin is now perhaps best known for its die-hard love of both the Green Bay Packers and its cheese, deep beneath the surface of Wisconsin history simmers a cesspool of nightmares that began before the term serial killer had been coined. The horror started when Ed Gein tried desperately to bring back his dead mother by first exhuming bodies, then by killing in order to harvest female body parts that he himself would wear. His story sparked a nation's macabre fascination with American serial killers, though its bizarre tale of grave robbing and decorating with the dead meant that when other true crime stories surfaced from the state, no one was terribly surprised. Ed Gein was among the first to undergo criminal profiling - was he transgender, a woman trapped in a man's body, or did he really just miss his mother? - but he would not be the last.
Wisconsin's infamous list of true crime serial killers includes the lonely Jeffrey Dahmer, who attempted science experiments in hopes of creating a sex slave to call his own, sex criminal David Spanbauer, who preferred raping little girls when he got the chance, and Walter Ellis, who preyed on prostitutes because he thought he would be able to get away with it. Turns out, he could, for more than a decade.
Wisconsin is full of secrets, and very bad men. This biography of four prolific serial killers steps into the heart of the state's madness, and is likely to make their nightmares yours, at least for a spine-tingling night or two, especially when you realize that what happens in the movies is sometimes horrifyingly real.

Where does Murder in Wisconsin rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Murder in Wisconsin ranks near the top of my list for it's attention to detail, interesting narration, and content of the bonus section.What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed the variety of content in the book, as well as the detailed information given in the bonus chapter. Mr. Rosewood has done a excellent job providing the reader/listener with a well-rounded, informative experience.Which scene was your favorite?
With the author's close attention to detail, there are many "moments" from each story that have stuck in my mind. One detail that I found especially disturbing was that police returned Dahmer's young victim, Konerak Sinthasomphone, to him after being convinced by Dahmer that they had merely had a lover's disagreement and he would take the "drunken" 19 year old back home. The young man was so very close to being rescued, yet ended up being added to Dahmer's heinous murder list.Miles Taylor's narration enhances each disturbing detail and brings a vivid, descriptive sense of reality to each case.
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
One of the interesting tidbits that I picked up from this story was that most serial killers think that they are unique, but they're not. I also found the profiling similarities very interesting and how accurate some professional profilers can be, right down to the criminal changing out of his pajamas and into the three piece suit that the profiler said he would be wearing when police arrested him. Uncanny, intriguing, and yes, a little bit creepy!Any additional comments?
I thoroughly enjoy Mr. Rosewood's true crime case stories and find them to be interesting, informative, and unsettling!Chills from Wisconsin

I didn't get the impression that there was any original journalism in the book, no interviews with witnesses, the quotes seemed taken from existing reports in newspapers and such. I don't know for sure, I'd need the physical book to know, but that's the impression I got. That isn't necessarily a problem, Anne Rule didn't conduct interviews either.
Hearing the stories again was fascinating and kept my interest. Miles Taylor has a very pleasant tone. His reading is totally clear and free of any distracting mouth noise. His audio quality is superb, full rich sound that doesn't stress the eardrums. In one standout moment when he quotes the "Dear Boss" letter he channels Jack the Ripper. That was chilling. It could actually have been the Ripper speaking. Production is first rate. Without original interviews the book is research--but not having the book I don't know if that's true, and if it isn't I take it back. An enjoyable listen, fascinating topic, not necessarily in-depth, but that doesn't really matter for what it is.
