Yeah, I figure most of us have read the main books on the main serial killers like BTK. They go into Shirley Vian in a lot of detail in the BTK book.
I personally liked Bind, Torture, Kill by a handful of reporters for The Wichita Eagle who told the BTK story from the inside.
But my all-time top 2 is In Cold Blood by Truman Capote and Columbine by Dave Cullen, and I can’t recommend either one of them highly enough.
They never are comic book monsters though. I read a book on the B.T.K. Killer and it was the same situation, he lived a normal life, he had a family, he held some positions of authority at his workplace and his church. I'm glad his lack of floppy disc knowledge got him caught. The same thing with Ted Bundy or Gacy. It's pretty unsettling.
This is the book, it was written by four reporters who covered the story while it was happening.
The book you want is this one by Roy Wenzl... lots of interviews with Ken Landwehr and others who were around during Rader's spree.

Rader's daughter Kerri is also writing a book: http://www.kansas.com/news/local/article134979419.html
