In the wilds of Alaska, Robert Hansen hunted more than just game. By day, he was a respected baker; by night, a predator who lured women into his trap, then set them loose in the wilderness—only to hunt them down like animals. For over a decade, his crimes went unnoticed, lost in the chaos of Anchorage’s booming oil town. But when one woman escaped, the truth began to unravel.

How did Hansen evade justice for so long? And what finally stopped him? This is the story of a killer who turned the Alaskan frontier into his personal hunting ground.
