For over a year, David Berkowitz held a city hostage to rear claiming the lives of six people in a killing spree that resulted in the largest manhunt in the history of New York. When he was finally caught, the nation was shocked to discover that the "face of terror" was a postal worker who smiled sweetly for the camera. Once apprehended, he confessed to all the crimes and asked the judge to put him away forever. In this comprehensive portrait, reporters and detectives who worked on the case, the parents of victims and a prosecutor relive the case that galvanised a nation. Psychologists explore the many frustrations and disappointments that led Berkowitz to kill, and Berkowitz himself talks about the crimes he committed.
