Rampage is the fifth book in the Bloodlands series. It covers mass murderer Howard Unruh, who went on a “walk of death” and killed 13 people in his neighborhood.

This might have been my favorite in the series, as I know a little about his case. He was found insane after the crimes and spent the next 60 years locked in mental health facilities. Some of his victims were pre-determined, and others were just people who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

His own family speculated that his time serving in WW2 changed him forever and could have led to this horrible incident. I think that since he was in his late 20’s and that is when certain mental illnesses raise their heads, it was unfortunate timing.

He never fully explained why, just made statements to things he believed they did and said about him and that was enough reason for him. His mental stability decreased over the years and he finally passed away in 2009, after 60 years of confinement.
