To Find a Killer is a 2023 book written by Doug Greco. The work tells the story of Norma and Maria Hurtado, a lesbian woman and her mother, who were fatally shot in 2011 by Jose Aviles in a hate crime motivated by homophobia. Doug Greco, who was a high school teacher to Norma Hurtado in Austin, Texas ten years before the murders, draws upon his experience organizing with groups such as Equality California to examine the incident and its broader implications. The book explores the history of LGBT rights movements in the United States through a detailed analysis of this case. Critics responded positively to the work, noting how it stands apart from typical true crime narratives by focusing on social context.
