Stolen In The Night by Gary C. King
Stolen In the Night is the first book that I have read by Gary C. King.
I can only hope that this wasn’t one of what is considered to be his better works as I found the writing to be only mediocre and barely able to keep my attention.
I was disappointed that the background of the victims was only brushed over, and the background information on the convicted, Joseph Duncan III, was little more.
While reading this book, I reached the epilogue thinking that the writer had completed his work and rushed to publishing before we knew the resolution of this particular case.
Instead I found that King placed the resolution, along with an “editoral” about sex offenders, in the epilogue.
This practice is quite unusual for true crime and, quite frankly, was confusing.
Overall, I would choose to read Stolen In The Night when there seemed to be nothing else to read. There are plenty better, but there are just as many worse.
