Bogeyman: He Was Every Parent's Nightmare by Steve Jackson
5.0
WOW, what a journey The Bogeyman brought. I couldn't turn the page quick enough. I've never heard of the sicko David Penton ever before until this book. Steve Jackson's writing is brilliant and the case shook me to the core. The 23-year investigation started in the 80's was intricate with so many twists and turns bringing tragedies to not only the victims' families but also everyone else whom was directly involved in this case.
My eyes were teary at some parts of the book. Steve tied everything so well together by weaving the plots with well-versed psychological and emotional elements. I was indulged in the fact that he managed to avoid injecting his subjective personal opinions into the stories so his readers wouldn't be steered away from the characters and the events that took place. This is how true crime should be written!
