This has got to be one of the better true crime books I have ever read. The author's writing style is fantastic! No cliches, nothing that makes you cringe at all. She keeps the plot fast moving. I am off to look for more books of hers to read!

This is an incredible true crime read. It is almost so bizarre that it is hard to believe its true. I just couldn't stop reading. People are murdered and tossed away like trash. And the head of the gang does it all in the name of God!!! It's so sad to see how easily women can be manipulated by a good looking? man. How do these people find each other? And the family of these wackos seem normal, scary to say the least! Read it you won't forget it.
