I'll Be Gone in the Dark, one woman's obsessive search for the Golden State Killer,

the podcast.

Michelle McNamara had the courage, the audacity, and the persistence to ask why.

Why has the Golden State Killer, who committed 50 rapes and 10 murders in California in the

1970s and 80s not yet been found?

Why are his crimes so unknown?

And of course, how can this killer be caught?

This podcast is the story of Michelle's writing, of how she researched, and of the many people who,
