The shocking true story of the Russian serial killer who brutally murdered more than fifty victims--and evaded capture for over a decade.

By the time he was brought to trial in 1992, Soviet serial killer Andrei Chikatilo had killed more than fifty women and children

A Moscow-based journalist explores the flaws and successes of Soviet law enforcement, as he examines the bizarre and terrifying case of "Citizen Chi", as he is known in the Russian media, a seemingly steadfast member of the Communist Party and father of two children--who embarked on a 12-year killing spree, murdering and mutilating more than 50 people.
