carla (USA: PA) (2010/01/19): i thought this book was great highly recommened for true crime readers
Ann Stoudt (USA: HI) (2018/06/19): By the late 1970s Fall River, Mass., shows freelance writer Scammell, had turned into a seedy town abandoned by industry, filled with derelict buildings. Amid the decay existed a flourishing prostitution business, fueled by drugs and presided over by pimps. Three prostitutes were murdered, two in 1979 and the other in 1980, and pimp Carl Drew is now serving a life sentence for his involvement in their deaths. He and some of the prostitutes had dabbled in Satanism, but the book's subtitle about ritual murder is misleading: these folk were at most desultory cultists.
