This is the story of a pedophile in 1930s America who uses his charm on widows with children to work his way into the house and then take the children.

Starts off quite strong, meanders a bit in the middle in the investigation phase but brings itself back on track for a firm ending.

Unlike many of such themed stories the ending isn't predictable.

Involves the murder and dismemberment of children as such, it is not one for the less mature audience.

It's an alright story with the historical aspect however I think there is better books out there on the topic at hand. ( )
