The Happy Face Killer: A Daughter's Reckoning with Her Father's Crimes

Growing up, Melissa Moore believed her father was just an ordinary man, a hardworking truck driver with a big personality and an easy smile. But when she was fifteen, her world shattered with a single phone call. Her father, Keith Jesperson, wasn't just the man who tucked her in at night. He was a serial killer.

Dubbed The Happy Face Killer for the eerie signature he left on taunting confessions, Jesperson had brutally murdered multiple women across the country, hiding in plain sight as a devoted father and husband. As the horrifying truth came to light, Melissa was left to piece together a shattered past, questioning every childhood memory that suddenly took on a sinister meaning.

Torn between the man she loved and the monster the world now knew, Melissa embarked on a journey of reckoning, seeking to understand the father who had lived a double life and the darkness that had lurked just beneath the surface. In this deeply personal and gripping true crime account, she shares her struggle to break free from his shadow, refusing to let his crimes define her own future.

A chilling yet hopeful story of survival, identity, and redemption, The Happy Face Killer: A Daughter's Reckoning with Her Father's Crimes is not just about confronting evil, it's about choosing to rise above it.
