Customer Reviews

Sick

Good book but it is sad because of what he does is not good.

Teacher for twenty years, and I have seen many like him.

I was facinated with the main character. I have seen many high school boys like him. Sad.

Great Book

The book about Glen Rogers is well written but I personaly think that maybe if he did these things that he was having black outs. The book was well written and your heart had to out to these women. You can feel the loss that their family feels the horror of it all happening. I write to Glen also and I think that there is more to the story.

One slip up and you're in jail

I don't know what made me pick this book up but I'm glad I did. Glen Rogers, the killer, fascinated me. He is good looking, and could easily be mistaken as a softie or even my big brother but he's actually a violent mass murderer who traveled from state to state, barely being missed by police on the look out for him. Once, he was even taken into a police station for a different reason than the violent murders he had commited but unknown to the police, they just let him walk free. This is an 'edge of your seat, page turner' and the only reason Glen was even caught, was because he spoke to the wrong person about his crimes. I recommend this book fully if you enjoy true crime.

True story of a horrible man and his murders

The information in the book was fairly accurate and it did jump around a bit. Readers not knowing something about this case might have found it harder to keep on tract. Justice was done....

Hard to get you nose out of!

Glen Rogers was a smooth operator until he told the wrong family member and got himself caught. Very well written. keeps you in suspense. Excellent photos.
