True Crime Book ‘American Predator’ TV Series in the Works from ‘Queen of the South’ Showrunner

Serial killer Israel Keyes will be the subject of a new TV series, with Maureen Callahan‘s American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century serving as the source material.

Deadline reports that “Queen of the South” showrunner Scott Rosenbaum is adapting the true crime book.

Keyes is known to have murdered at least three people between 2001 and his arrest in 2012 and is suspected of killing at least eight others across the U.S. He was also a bank robber, burglar, arsonist, kidnapper, and sex offender. He died by suicide while awaiting trial at the age of 34.

Keyes’ scrupulous modus operandi included flying to a city, renting a car, and breaking into a stranger’s house. He would then abduct his victims, kill them, and dispose of their bodies before returning home to Alaska to resume his life as a construction worker devoted to his only daughter.

Published by Penguin Random House in 2019, American Predator reveals the true story behind how the FBI caught Keyes and tries to understand what it means for a killer like him to exist.

Rosenbaum has also served as a writer and executive producer on “V,” “Chuck,” and “The Shield.”
