3.0 out of 5 stars A Good True Crime Book! But I've read better!, January 26, 2008
This review is from: Blood Highway (Paperback)
This was the first book that I read from Sheila JOhnson entitled Blood Highway about a madman who kills his pregnant girlfriend, Patricia Ann Booher, and drives with her body to ALabama. There I remember his crimes as awful, the book is memorable because the author writes about the bizarre nature of his crimes which includes killing two beloved pets that were more like children to the owners. I just finished reading a recent true crime book from the same author entitled Blood Lust which I thought was more interesting than Blood Highway. Regardless the crime against Patricia Ann Booher, the major victim, is one that I will never forget. From what I remembered reading this book, she had a difficult childhood and was finally happy on becoming a mother and looked forward to it. The senseless tragedy regarding her murder and the loss of her unborn child is something that I won't forget soon. The author does give a lot of background to both the vicious murderer but not as much while she does write about Patty in a loving, caring manner. Patty's loss was a waste of valuable life! May she find peace and love in the afterlife.

5.0 out of 5 stars Horrific details., January 18, 2005
This review is from: Blood Highway (Paperback)
Tragically truthful heartbreaking story of a young girl who just wanted to be loved. I do consider the book a tribute to Patty (victim) and feel Sheila (author) did a wonderful job in telling of this unacceptable crime. I truly do commend the author for the compassion shown for Patty.
