A "terrific, harrowing, true-crime account of an elusive serial killer who preyed upon gay men in the 1990s." -The New York Times (Editor's Pick)"In this astonishing and powerful work of nonfiction, Green meticulously reports on a series of baffling and brutal crimes targeting gay men.

But that’s what he is, and tonight, he has his sights set on a gray haired man. He will not be his first victim.Nor will he be his last.The Last Call Killer preyed upon gay men in New York in the ‘80s and ‘90s and had all the hallmarks of the most notorious serial killers.

And at the same time, it paints a portrait of his victims and a vibrant community navigating threat and resilience.

Given the reviews, I expected this book to be so much more than it turned out to be. It is obviously a labor of love and has been thoroughly researched, but then the author had a problem deciding what to use and what to leave out. As it is, several sections, such as a detailed history of the Anti-Violence Project and a roundup of New York's gay bars, should have been left out. They simply slow the narrative or, worse, outright abandon it. In other instances, the author cannot resist inserting some jarring, unrelated factoid, such as that writer Stephen King once sat at a particular bar in Orono, Maine, or that John Kennedy Jr. interviewed someone in another case. The book needed an iron-fisted editor badly. By the time I was halfway through it, I was skimming pages just to get back to the plot. In the epilogue the author writes that his book was intended to be an investigation of the lives of closeted gay men slain by a serial killer in New York. And, to be fair, he does outline the lives of the four victims, though only two were closeted. Put together, however, those pages would barely be half of the 219 pages of the book. The killer is apparently also a closeted gay man, but while we are given numerous aspects of his life, including the mileages on his car when taken in for servicing, we never get any hint of what drove him to be a serial killer. The author interviewed scores of people; perhaps he should have included a psychiatrist or two. To conclude, "Last Call" would be much better reworked as a long, tightly written magazine article -- or a shorter book.
