Demon In The Freezer

My impression of this book was a mixed one. If you're looking for a book full of facts, true life events, and is a little bit of a thriller this is a good choice for you. If you're looking for a good fiction story with a good plot and storyline this would not be one of your top choices.

I realized how serious this issue is and how it should not be taken lightly. The threat
