Synopsis

In 1985, Charles Ng and Leonard Lake were spotted shoplifting. Ng escaped, but Lake's capture led police to a concrete bunker in the Sierra Nevada foothills, where they discovered the grisly evidence of an orgy of sex crimes, torture, and murder that claimed at least sixteen victims. Lake committed suicide: Ng fled to Canada, where he was tracked down and extradited to California. This fourteen-year, $10 million legal case was the costliest and longest criminal prosecution in California history.

I love true crime books - I'm a big fan of Ann Rule (even if she can be long-winded). I picked this one up because I had never heard of Leonard Lake or Charles Ng.

Leonard Lake was born in California in 1945. He had a very odd upbringing, and became obsessed with pornography at a young age...even going as far as photographing his own sister naked. He ultimately joined the United States Marine Corps, serving two tours in Vietnam. During this time period, he was......more
