There are so many books about Ted Bundy that Kleiner has been able to dedicate an entire section of her library to them, and books are just the tip of the Bundy iceberg. As the years went on, Kleiner could have tried to forget him, but instead she decided to figure him out - which is why she’s so comfortable in the true crime section of any bookstore. She was 20 when Ted Bundy crept into her bedroom at Florida State University, 22 when he was sentenced to death, and 32 when he was finally strapped into Old Sparky, Florida’s electric chair.
You wouldn’t know, watching her joke around, that Kleiner is holding a book about the man who almost killed her. “Now you find a book with your name in it,” she’ll say. Then she’ll look at her husband and grin. Whatever it is, she’s probably read it already, but she’ll grab it off the shelf anyway and flip through it until she finds her name.
The Stranger Beside Me, maybe, or perhaps The Only Living Witness.
YED BUNDYS DAUGHTER SERIAL
She’ll scan the shelves until she spots it: a book on the serial killer Ted Bundy. Every now and then, Kathy Kleiner Rubin likes to duck into a bookstore with her husband, Scott, and head straight for the true crime section.
