In the fall of 2016, authorities in Ashland, Ohio, arrested serial killer Shawn Grate on kidnapping charges. Grate immediately latched onto Detective Kim Mager, an experienced sex offenses specialist assigned to his case, and repeatedly demanded to speak with her, perhaps convinced that he could control her like he controlled his victims. But he was wrong. For eight days of brutal interviews, Detective Mager successfully elicited Grate's damning confessions to five murders. These recorded conversations would be key to his later conviction and death sentence. A HUNGER TO KILL reveals the psyche of one of the most brutal serial killers in American history from the woman who took him down in collaboration with New York Times bestselling author Lisa Pulitzer.
