Appointment for Murder

This book is a detailed story of a dentist who lived out his violent fantasies, leading him to murder innocent men. Dr. Engleman's sex life, family life, and religious beliefs are described in a way so that the reader can form an understanding of why he commited his crimes. Bacos does not give much analysis; therefore, it is more like reading a fiction novel than a nonfictious story. The dialogue from the ATF's tapes allows the reader into the mind of a power hungry Mama's boy.

APPOINTMENT FOR MURDER

This is a story about a very manipulative dentist that tried to control everyone that he knew. His specialty, of course, was using women as a major part of his schemes to get rich. If it wasn't for his ex wife, this story probably would never have been told and Engleman would still be killing innocent people. I feel that this was a very good book and that the author should be praised for being able to write in such detail about this very sick and twisted man.
