Book Overview

To neighbors, she was the brave single mother... Raising her five kids alone in a rundown section of Sacramento, Theresa Cross Knorr seemed like the ultimate survivor. But her youngest daughter, 16-year-old Terry, told police another story: one almost too terrible to believe. But accused of imprisoning her children in a house of horrors...

This book was chilling!

This book was chilling, and one of the best books I have ever read. I don't think I looked up until I was about halfway through. Overall an awesome informative book.

I received it and in great condition

It was in great condition

Never Received This Book, Still Waiting For It!!!

Never Got This Book!!

Haven't read it yet.

After reading the introduction I am still debating whether to read it or not. Being a mother it is hard to believe a mother could be that jealous and cruel.

Can't even finish it....it is that badly written

I was expecting much more from this book including details, which were lack luster to say the least. The authors writing is extremely bland and she constantly says "Theresa Knorr" about 5 billion times as if we didn't realize the main characters name by now. Again, I was expecting something much more intriguing.

How could a mother be so cruel?!

This book was very good but also sad, I could not believe that a mother would do those awful things to her daughters: one daughter she shot and left her in the bath tub to bleed to death and then burned her alive, another daughter she locked in a small closet starved her until she passed out and died. All through this book I kept thinking "What is wrong with their mother?! How could she be so jealous?!" This book is sad but it's a page turner, you can't stop reading it until the end!

Incredibly Unthinkable Acts

I was glued from beginning to end. There is such a bigger impact when you find associated media on the subject either by talk shows and news or magazine clippings. That's the fun part of it all. I was supprised while reading the book, that it took sssooo long for police to investigate the issues the girl and others brought to their attention. But like one of the other reviews states, some of the facts may be misrepresented or stretched a bit. I'd be curious to find out more! A Must Read for those who like True Crime!
