-Descripcion Original:

“True crime at its most shocking, most harrowing, and . . . most thought-provoking.”-BooklistIn 1977 twenty-year-old Colleen Stan left home to hitchhike from Oregon to California. Seven years later she emerged from hell, the victim of a bizarre and extraordinary crime.This is Colleens incredible true story, told by the determined young district attorney who prosecuted the man who had forced her to endure years of sexual perversion . . . and held her captive in a coffin-like box under his and his wifes bed. A story of riveting psychological intensity and gripping courtroom drama, Perfect Victim reveals the whole truth about Collen Stans real-life nightmare . . . and the psychopath who enslaved her body and her mind.“Horrifying!”-The Cincinnati Post“Hard to put down!”-Chicago Tribune“A gripping and disturbing story of the secret life of apparently normal people. At once, horrific and engrossing.”-Vincent Bugliosi, author of Helter Skelter Review Some may find it unbelievable that a 20-year-old Oregon woman could be enslaved by a sexual sadist for seven years--that even after being able to move freely during the day, she would allow him to lock her into a wooden box every night. Perhaps its a minor failing of this book that the authors do not elaborate on the psychology that made her such a perfect victim. In other respects, though, the story is well told, with an impressive accumulation of details: the womans capture, the tortures she endured, the brainwashing techniques, the fiendish contraptions her captor constructed, the slave contract he made her sign, and the increasingly strained relations within the peculiar family that included master, slave, wife, and child, all inside a single-wide trailer. As well-known attorney and author Vincent Bugliosi writes, A gripping and disturbing story of the secret life of apparently normal people. At once, horrific and engrossing.
