In September, 2008, Roanoke, Texas, police discovered a house of horrors: poisoned pudding, a bathtub set up for electrocution, a bloody butcher knife, and a hank of chopped-off hair. The worst was yet to come.

Days before, 17-year-old Jennifer Bailey, her 13-year-old brother David, and their friends Paul Henson and Merrilee White had made a gruesome pact: they'd kill their parents, steal their cars and credit cards, and flee to Canada.

Paul and Merrilee's parents thwarted their fates, but Jennifer and David's mother Susan Bailey wasn't so lucky. When the devoted mother returned home from work, her two children and their friend Paul took turns stabbing her and slicing her throat. When they were done, they fled in Susan's car. They made it as far as South Dakota before being arrested.

What really led them to make such a despicable pact? The answers would cast a disturbing new light on the way we see the all-American family, our neighbors, our children - and the society that nurtured them.

the story is very interesting the narrator does a good job there are times when the story does get a bit repetitive I have noticed that as a pattern in true crime novels however I will say the writer does seem a little bit biased not exactly impartial however it is hard to be in partial when you consider how gruesome this crime Was

I like reading true crime, and this story was good but the author was really repetitive which ruined it for me. It was like she wrote it a few chapters at a time and forgot what she had already mentioned. It was unnecessary to include definitions of what emo or anime is, especially more than once. She repeatedly mentioned them living in a fantasy world and being a threesome. She repeatedly mentioned that Paul believed they were together in a past life. She took her notes and stretched them as far as possible. Half of this book could have been scrapped and it would have been a much more enjoyable read. I won't be reading anything else from this Author.
