Bogeyman: He Was Every Parent's Nightmare - Tapa blanda

Bogeyman is the inspirational true crime story describing in dramatic detail the efforts of tenacious Texas lawmen to solve the cold case murders of three little girls and hold their killer accountable for his horrific crimes. An incredible police procedural from award-winning journalist and author Steve Jackson that begins in January 1985 and in a very real sense continues to this day as police detectives push to bring other cases against serial child killer David Elliott Penton.
