"Unveiling Claudia" is a true crime mystery that took place in Columbus, OH in 1978. Claudia Yasko confessed to three murders and accused her boyfriend and his best friend of making her go with them to do the murder. The problem is that Claudia is a schizophrenic with a vivid and fantastic imagination, and not able to distinguish between the two. The story tells of the murders, the "22 killers", and the actual interviews done with Claudia in order to write the book. This book is suspenseful and hard to put down. Very well written and you don't find out the truth until the end at the same time that Claudia finally 'remembers' it. Very, very good!

**This book was written by Daniel Keyes who wrote "Flowers for Algernon" (another GREAT book).
