Franscell is a wonderful writer. This book far exceeded my expectations. I'll never look at bridges the same way again!

As a fan of Anne Rule's books, I found this book to be horrible and haunting at the same time. If you like the true crime genre, you would definitely like this book. In many ways I thought it to be maybe even a little better than most.

A true crime story that sickens the reader but reminds one of the dangers "out there" and how important it is to teach our children NO NO NO ... when it comes to strangers and accepting help. Better to err on the side of caution and take a chance which may end up being the last one you/they will ever have.
