Almost from the firt page, this book had me riveted. It's hard to believe these types of things could happen in America, even in the late 70's and early 80's. It was, by far, the most gripping, shocking, and horrifying true crime stories I have ever read. It makes one hope that Child Protective Services is doing a better job today than they did for the Sexton children. I also had to look this case up on the internet to see if it really was real.
