                     An amazing true crime story of two sick individuals.
                     I won't get too much into the details of this book. However, if you like
                     true crime stories, put this one at the top of your list. Two unlikely sex
                     perpetrators (husband and wife) do horrible unthinkable crimes to their
                     victims, one of which was the wife's younger sister.

                     A SHOCKING & MIND NUMBING CRIME
                     I remember when the story had just come out and you couldn't get many
                     of the details of the crime. This book filled in all the blanks! It is terrifying
                     to think that a once normal teenage girl like Karla Homolka could be
                     taken in to the murderous acts of a sick minded Paul Bernardo. I believe
                     she had the opportunity to put a stop to it and because she didn't innocent
                     girls including her own sister had all of their innocence taken away and
                     their last torturous moments of life preserved on video tape. I have read
                     numerous true crime books and this one just sticks in my mind as the most
                     horrific account of serial crime. A must read for true crime buffs!

                     Completly chilling powerful use of facts
                     Scott Burnside's portrayal of Karla in all acounts was in my opinion
                     accurate.Use of words and facts very powerful and to the point.Puts the
                     reality of the horror,pain and absolute injustice in a way that is shocking.
                     In all is the most accurate account of a pychopath, what one is capable of
                     doing and convincing of even the most unlikly horrifying deeds.

                     Couldn't put down! Felt like I knew Paul & Karla.
                     From the moment I picked the book up I couldn't put it down! I have
                     read hundreds of true crime books and this was the most riveting! Hard to
                     believe that people like this actually exist! I felt like I got to them from
                     childhood. The way all good books should be written.

                     Hard to Put Down and Makes You Think About Abuse!
                     I read this book last week and got online to find more books by this
                     author, something I don't normally do. It sure has made me wonder just
                     how Karla could be involved with the death of her own sister and other
                     young girls and blame this all on Paul! I enjoyed the book, but it sure
                     makes you think about the affect of abuse on a person.

                     A reader, January 23, 1996
                     The best true crime book I've ever read
                     I have read a lot of true crime and I usually find them to be sensationalistic
                     and vulgar. The authors of this book did a comprehensive report and
                     analysis of this fascinating couple.
