A Daughter’s Betrayal, A Father’s Forgiveness
Review by Kim Cantrell
On March 1, 2008, author Terry Caffey‘s life changed forever.
Caffey and his wife of almost 19 years had set firm rules with their sixteen-year-old daughter, Erin, in regards to her romantic relationship with eighteen-year-old Charlie Wilkinson.
She saw only one way to escape her parents rigidity: their death.
And on that fateful night, Penny Caffey would die; along with her two young sons: Matthew, 13 and Tyler, 8. Erin’s father Terry would (barely) survive.
Terror By Night is Caffey’s first hand account of the events that would change his life in ways he could have never imagined.
From a true crime readers standpoint, it’s an interesting case but only about half the book is dedicated to the actual crime.
Terror By Night should be approached with the mindset for which it was intended: inspirational.
Readers are invited into the heart and soul of a man who lost (literally) everything and struggles to understand why while coping with a daughter’s betrayal.
If you’re looking for strictly the cold, hard facts of the crime, this book probably isn’t for you. If, however, you enjoy a story brought forth by survival and hope, then I highly recommend Terror By Night from Terry Caffey.
