To the hopeful actresses for whom the piano teacher's unpretentious East Side studio had become a necessary stop-off on the road to stardom, Charles Yukl wore a choirboy's face. In this riveting, excruciatingly chilling true crime story, the author joins forces with a journalist to dramatize two of New York's most brutal murders ... and bring to light the shocking series of legal errors and judicial glitches that granted a deranged killer the freedom to kill again.
