The true life story of 15-year-old Betty Lee Hanson who escaped serial killer, Ralph Andrews on Christmas night, 1973. Ralph Raymond Andrews killed continuously throughout the 70's, 80's and early 90's in Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, able to elude the police many, many times. Dozens of girls lost their lives at his hands. Andrews died in prison in January of 2006, too afraid to undergo life saving heart surgery. It is believed he killed more than Bundy, Gacy and Manson. Possibly 40 girls were kidnapped, raped and eviscerated. Only Ralph and God know the exact body count. This is the true story of the modern day Jack-the-Ripper. A haunting story of fierce determination and survival that will remind you that every breath is precious and every day a gift.

Author's Note: This book is NOT a detailed account of the forensics but rather a story of SURVIVAL. Ralph Andrews escaped trials many times and was never charged for most of his killings so there are no court documents included in this book and no forensics though he was questioned as a suspect in many of the murders. Many times he was only questioned once and never charged at all with the exception of a trial in 1976 for attempted murder and unlawful restraint of one woman and for the murder of Virginia Griffin in 1991. Information on those two trials were obtained from The Chicago Tribune and are included in the book. While in prison in the 90's he confessed to killing 40 girls and women in the Cold Case Confessions tapes after authorities found a written list of women he killed in his jell cell. This book details the survivor’s story and includes insightful interviews with friends and family of the victims and one former friend of the killer. This is the true story of how a 15-year-old girl escaped during a blizzard on Christmas night and her fight to put him behind bars for good.

A Book For All the Dead Girls


When I spoke to survivor, Betty Lee Hanson over the phone in January of 2012, she told me the horrifying story of her escape from a serial killer on Christmas night, 1973. Betty Lee was 15-years-old. I was 3-years-old and still remember the brand new kitchen I got from Santa that year. My mother tells me it took them hours to put together and they finally went to bed at 3 am. While I was sleeping in bed after a huge Christmas with all the wonder of childhood, Betty Lee was going through Hell. She was fighting for her life in the middle of a blizzard, on the side of the highway, face to face with serial killer, Ralph Andrews.Betty Lee survived a stab to the heart and lived to testify against Andrews many times.

This is my first non-fiction book and I'm proud to take on this project. If you ask Betty Lee why she wants this book written, she'll tell you this: "For all the dead girls. These girls want this story written."

When Betty Lee uttered those words to me, a chill snaked down my spine and I knew I had to write this book.

THE PREY THAT GOT AWAY is Coming soon!

And this book is for all the dead girls. May you all rest in peace.
