Tri-State Area Mad Dog Killer

by Joyce Hudson

BASED ON A TRUE STORY A brilliant police officer and a brilliant killer are at odds as the bodies pile up in Vanderburgh, and Posey County in Indiana, and also in Kentucky's Henderson County. You can get in the minds of both men and feel the frustration as they play cat and mouse throughout the Christmas season of 1954 and into April of 1955. Watch the killer as he is caught, tried, sentenced to die, and escapes from an escape proof jail. He runs to California and the FBI gets involved and joins the chase. It's a chase to be remembered. ! Endorsements "I have truly enjoyed reading this book! Being from Evansville Indiana and presently living and working in Posey County Indiana, I am familiar with the locations, victims, and their families that were involved in this tragic story. I highly recommend this book! It is accurate in its details, and interesting in its content. " Chief Deputy Sheriff Mike Alexander, Posey County, Indiana "Research has clearly been done on this work. It is a very interesting read, and will hold your attention throughout. I am certain you will appreciate the unique presentation as did I." Larry A. Dever, Sheriff, Cochise County Arizona "This book is a great read! I really enjoyed it! I thought it read like a movie script, and should be made into a movie."

Reviews

[Lori G]

I want to start this review with a couple of points:
1. I love self-published books. I read them regularly.
2. I only finished this book because of my interest in the case, seeing as I'm also from Evansville.
3. I also love absurdly bad books and movies.

Now to get to the meat of the review:

This book was TERRIBLE. The editing was basically never done. This book should be given to all high school and college students in English classes to show the importance of editing. I see on Amazon that the author has defended her book with something along the lines of "all books have a couple of typos or misspellings." That is NOT the case with this book. This book couldn't even make it through a whole paragraph without typos or misspellings. There were random quotation marks that weren't part of a quote. There were quotes that were never closed. There were periods in the middle of sentences. In one instance, a whole new paragraph break took place in the middle of a sentence. In another instance, the author spelled the name Able differently (Abel) in the same sentence as they use the spelling Able. This book is literally the worse edited book I have ever seen. This includes a different book that spelled "lungs" as "longs". This book is so much worse. This book is like Tommy Wiseau's The Room in written form, but lacks the humor that catapulted Wiseau's work to fame.

I would literally never recommend this book to anyone. Save yourself. Find something different.
