In 2004, the FBI was tipped off to a gruesome pattern of murders along American roadways. Today at least 850 homicides have been linked to a solitary breed of predators: long-haul truck drivers. They have been given names like the Truck Stop Killer, who rigged a traveling torture chamber in the rear of his truck and is suspected to have killed fifty women, and The Interstate Strangler, who once answered a phone call from his mother while killing one of his dozen victims. The crisis was such that the FBI opened a special unit, the Highway Serial Killings Initiative. In each case, the victims, often at-risk women, are picked up at truck stops in one jurisdiction, sexually assaulted and murdered in another, and dumped along a highway in a third place. What's worse, the transient nature of the offenders and multiple jurisdictions involved make these cases difficult to solve. Based on his own on-the-ground research and drawing on his twenty-five-year career as an FBI special agent, Frank Figliuzzi investigates the most terrifying cases.

Now, drawing on his distinguished career, Figliuzzi reveals how the Bureau achieves its extraordinary track record of excellence-from the training of new recruits in "The FBI Way" to the Bureau's rigorous maintenance of its standards up and down the organization.
