For decades, a father in the Bay Area made his living taking people’s portraits, but he harbored a monstrous secret. When one woman vanished in 1976, the only clue police had was that she’d gone to a restaurant to meet a photographer about a modeling job. Other women who’d gone to get their pictures taken were found murdered in the woods in Marin County. This disconnected series of homicides and disappearances remained stubbornly unsolved. But then in 2010, a probation officer caught a lucky break.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity.

Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

In February 1942, a reconnaissance party of US Army Air Force officers arrived in England. Firmly wedded to the doctrine of daylight precision bombing, they believed they could help turn the tide of the war in Europe. In the months that followed, they formed the Eighth Air Force—an organization that grew at an astonishing rate. To accommodate it, almost seventy airfields were built across the eastern counties of England.
