Elizabeth Kendall's 1981 memoir, detailing her six-year relationship with serial killer Ted Bundy, long out of print, now reissued with startling new material from the author and her daughter
The inspiration for the five-part Amazon Original docuseries Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer
           
  This updated, expanded edition of The Phantom Prince,  Elizabeth Kendall’s 1981 memoir detailing her six-year relationship  with serial killer Ted Bundy, includes a new introduction and a new  afterword by the author, never-before-seen photos, and a startling new  chapter from the author’s daughter, Molly, who has not previously shared  her story. Bundy is one of the most notorious serial killers in  American history and one of the most publicized to this day. However,  very rarely do we hear from the women he left behind—the ones forgotten  as mere footnotes in this tragedy. The Phantom Prince chronicles  Elizabeth Kendall’s intimate relationship with Ted Bundy and its  eventual unraveling. As much as has been written about Bundy, it’s  remarkable to hear the perspective of people who shared their daily  lives with him for years. This gripping account presents a remarkable  examination of a charismatic personality that masked unimaginable  darkness.
“For decades, interest and news coverage about Ted Bundy focused on Bundy as a killer, privileging his perverse pathology and overweening ego over anyone else. Now the focus has shifted to the women whose world Bundy inhabited… whose lives were bound up with Ted Bundy like family, kept apart from the unimaginable but living everyday horrors of their own. Women like Elizabeth and Molly Kendall.” * GEN Magazine *
“It’s apparent from the very first line of The Phantom Prince to Molly’s final chapter … that Kendall’s voice, as well as that of her daughter, are needed.” -- Clémence Michallon * The Independent *
“The Phantom Prince is both surreal and brave. Elizabeth Kendall and her daughter Molly share their remarkable personal experience of trauma and courage as it played out in the shadows of perhaps the most devastating true crime story of our time.” -- Trish Wood, Producer/Director of the Amazon Original documentary series, Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer
