I just finished this book and whoa how disturbing can one be? I remember seeing Keith Jesperson's daughter on Dr. Phil. She was on there for his reality series and was the woman who had a serial killer for a father. After seeing her on the show and then reading this book, I can't imagine the horror of knowing your own father could have committed such atrocities. Very disturbing, but like a train wreck, you can't keep your eyes off of it!

The story of a serial killer. Information was gleaned from interviews, diaries, court records, and from the actual killer. It is gripping yet disturbing to read.
