"Growing up on Cape Cod in the 1960s, Liza Rodman was a lonely little girl. During the summers, while her mother worked days in a local motel and danced most nights in the Provincetown bars, her babysitter--the kind, handsome handyman at the motel where her mother worked--took her and her sister on adventures in his truck. He bought them popsicles and together, they visited his 'secret garden' in the Truro woods ... Everyone thought he was just a 'great guy.' But there was one thing she didn't know: their babysitter was a serial killer. Some of his victims were buried--in pieces--right there, in his garden in the woods"--

This book has been mis marketed. It's enjoyable but not at all what was expected.
So I started reading this one yesterday morning and switched to audio while I was baking all the goodness for Thanksgiving dinner. I ended up finishing it and really enjoyed it.
Serial killers are fascinating in that I don't understand how or why they are they way they are. The Babysitter was an even scarier one for me as there were children involved, unbeknownst to the mom, of what he truly was. How terrifying, as an adult, to learn the person you idolized and we're around almost every day was a serial killer!
If you enjoy reading this type of Non-Fiction I suggest picking this one up.
