Summary

He was a high school classmate. She barely knew him. Yet throughout her twenties Kathleen's stalker had tracked her every move, found each new phone number and residence, and appeared seemingly out of nowhere with a weapon in hand. But with no anti-stalking legislation on the books, Kathleen was left with very few options. She educated herself on the psychology of stalkers: how to stay a step ahead of them, how to outsmart them, how to document them, how to survive them. Her quick and clever thinking kept her alive, and today Kathleen, known as "The Safety Chick", has used her wisdom to inspire and empower millions to make smart personal safety choices.
