If you're only vaguely familiar with this notorious killing that took place in New York during the 70s, this book offers quite a bit of insight into not only the victim but her killer as well.
And while the writer admits to using some necessary speculation on what lead up to the murder itself, it still doesn't make this any less of an interesting read.
It should also be noted that two films were made on the subject -- The 1977 theatrical release, LOOKING FOR MISTER GOODBAR starring Diane Keaton, and a subsequent TV movie starring George Segal that involved the police hunt afterwards. (I'm not sure if the latter is based on this particular novel itself.)
