Search - The Preacher's Son : A True Story of Murder in North Carolina

Interesting but doesn't give much background info.

Excellent reading of a true crime story. Located locally to where I live.

Pleasant Garden, NC seemed like a God-fearing community where simple dreams came true. For Patricia Blakley it was church on Sundays and a loving family. Her prayers were answered in Ted Kimble, a fellow Christian and son of a local preacher. Then one evening, Patricia's charred body was found among the remains of her burned-out home. But it wasn't an out-of-control fire that killed sweet Patricia Kimble: it was a bullet to the skull. Soon Ted Kimble's wall of lies came tumbling down, revealing his true nature.

Enjoyed this book a great deal...read it in about 2 days - Fascinating how someone can be so different than what his "public face" appears. If you like true crime stories, this one is a must.

A good true-crime read!
