Nanny. I Was Raised by a Serial Killer

The turbulent 1960s, the time of hippies, rock and roll, and drugs. Little Liza has not the best mother. The girl hears only insults and disdain from her, while her mother is more concerned with finding new men than raising her daughter. But everything changes when a 'nanny' appears in their family - a friendly handyman, Tony Costa, who sometimes looks after Liza and her little sister. For the first time, Liza doesn’t feel worthless and thinks that Tony is a great guy. But what she doesn't know is that her 'nanny' is actually a serial killer. Tony Costa, nicknamed 'the Carpenter Killer' and 'Jack the Ripper of the Hippie Era,' led an asocial lifestyle, killed and dismembered girls he became close to through drug use. As a child, Liza didn’t understand that the mysterious murders whispered about by adults were his doing, but as she grew up and realized it, she immersed herself in the investigation of his murders. The result was a book - part true crime, part personal memories - about the friendship of a lonely little girl and a cold-blooded serial killer.
