My review: This is a true crime book. I love true crime and read as many cases as I can.. This book made me sad and I really felt sorry for Mary Brown to have undergone such a horrific tragedy only to have the guy released and have to relive it all over again and wonder if he was going to come back and finish the job. I also think that Tom Luther is a low life and should have never been allowed to go free the first time.

The system releases a psychotic, dangerous criminal to kill.

Wow..
this book was amazing. Such detail.. i could feel the horror his victims went through.. and cried several times throughout the book.
I couldnt put it down once I started reading it. Truly, one of the best true crime books I have ever read.

THE LAST THING THESE PRECIOUS GIRLS SAW WAS THE FACE OF A MONSTER....
