Neighbors were unaware of what went on behind the tightly closed doors of a house in Fresno, California—the home of an imposing, 300-pound Marcus Wesson, his wife, children, nieces, and grandchildren. But on March 12, 2004, gunshots were heard inside the Wesson home, and police officers responding to what they believed was a routine domestic disturbance were horrified by the senseless carnage they discovered when they entered.
By Their Father's Hand is a chilling true story of incest, abuse, madness, and murder, and one family's terrible and ultimately fatal ordeal at the hands of a powerful, manipulative man—a cultist who envisioned vengeful gods and vampires, and totally controlled those closest to him before their world came to a brutal and bloody halt.
Could have been a good story, had it had an actual writer. The actual events were horrendous! But Mr Francis the author didnt seem to ever grasp the helm and lead anywhere, he simply spun his wheels and created a lot of dust.If youre looking for a good ~read~, leave this book on the shelf. My real rating, which Booksfree wont allow me to leave, would be 1/2 of a star.
