À propos de cet audio
From 1926 to 1928, Gordon Stewart Northcott committed at least 20 murders on a chicken ranch outside of Los Angeles. His nephew, Sanford Clark, was held captive there from the age of 13 to 15, and was the sole surviving victim of the killing spree. Here, acclaimed crime writer Anthony Flacco - using never-before-heard information from Sanford’s son, Jerry Clark - tells the real story behind the case that riveted the nation.
Forced by Northcott to take part in the murders, Sanford carried tremendous guilt all his life. Yet despite his youth and the trauma, he helped gain some justice for the dead and their families by testifying at Northcott’s trial, which led to his conviction and execution. It was a shocking story, but perhaps the most shocking part of all is the extraordinarily ordinary life Clark went on to live as a decorated WWII vet, a devoted husband of 55 years, a loving father, and a productive citizen.
In dramatizing one of the darkest cases in American crime, Flacco constructs a riveting psychological drama about how Sanford was able to detoxify himself from the evil he’d encountered, offering the ultimately redemptive story of one man’s remarkable ability to survive a nightmare and emerge intact.

Excellent book...
Sanford lived down the street from my dad when they were kids. My dad told me he played with Sanford long before this terrible story happened. This book was a must have for our family. I plan in going to visit Sanford's grave one day, I have family in the same cemetery.

A terrible but incredible story
This book can be graphic at times and for that reason it is definitely not for everyone. If you can cope with that part of it, it's an incredible but horrific story of abuse, murder, and survival. I recommend it to true crime fans, but prepare yourself for disturbing details. I gave the performance 3 stars because at times I found the voice a bit grating or exaggerated, but I wouldn't say it's bad or a reason not to listen. Just not my personal favourite voice.
