I Know Who You Are

EDGAR AWARD FINALIST. Barbara Rae-Venter, the genealogy expert behind the Golden State Killer's capture, presents *I Know Who You Are*, a gripping account of her pioneering work in investigative genetic genealogy. Hailed as "a true-crime masterpiece" (John Douglas), Rae-Venter details her unexpected journey from retiree to the nation's foremost cold-case solver. The book offers thrilling insights into her unique methodology—meticulously tracing ancestral lines through public records and collaborating with law enforcement—to identify previously unidentifiable perpetrators and victims. Maureen Callahan calls her an "unsung hero who has given murdered women and children their faces and names back," and *The Wall Street Journal* notes her dedication "echoes... Harry Bosch." *I Know Who You Are* captures the exhilaration of solving the unsolvable and the profound human quest for identity in the face of enduring mysteries.
