The police in Jersey County, Illinois, accepted Paula Sims' story of a masked kidnapper who snatched her baby girl, Lorelei, from her bassinet. Three years later, her second newborn daughter suffered an identical fate - and this time the police were unable to stop searching until they had discovered the whole horrifying truth. This is the full terrifying story of twisted sexuality and hate seething below the surface of a seemingly normal family and of the massive investigation and nerve-shattering trial that made the unthinkable a reality.

But behind his well-connected star athlete façade was a money-obsessed drug dealer desperate to make the big score to get him out of the business. When he was sentenced to prison, it seemed the only lessons he would learn would be about navigating convict society. Instead, he was offered a chance to regain his freedom in return for going undercover in the nation’s highest security prison for the criminally insane.

Reseñas editoriales
Kate Hood delivers a rousing performance of And Then the Darkness a nonfiction book by Sue Williams. Peter Falconio and Joanne Lees, an English couple, set off for an adventure in the Australian Outback. Joanne was later found wandering by a highway with her hands bound and tape in her hair. She told police that a stranger had shot Peter and tied her up, but she had managed to escape. A massive manhunt ensued, but soon the media began to question both the authorities and Joanne. Was she telling the truth? Who was the stranger? Would justice ever be served?
Reseñas de la Crítica
" skillfully woven recreation of events reads so much like a seriously creepy novel, it well may have you swearing off outback holidays forever. All the detail and facts, however, have been accrued from some serious journalistic digging, and it's the density of detail, along with its ominous atmosphere, that is the true gold." (Australian Women's Weekly)
"Like good crime fiction, And Then the Darkness presents us with clearly drawn characters and a satisfying denouement." (The Age)
I spent so much time feeling so sorry for Joanne! What a horrible ordeal, both the crime and the trial and run-up to it! And the fact that it was based in Australia about victims who were from Great Britain did not make any difference in that :-(. I know that even if such a thing happened in the US, there would be no less criticism from the press or mistrust from observers. The amount that the victims have to experience is unacceptable, although the insistence of avoiding convicting an innocent person is necessary to avoid the unacceptable reverse. Oh, the whole thing is miserable and unacceptable in reverse!
I'm not sure why I am so attracted to true crime books and stories, but I hope that, in the end, they do tend to paint a true picture of some of the evil of people. Sigh. I am privileged: I've managed to make it through almost 61 years without having to experience any of this. Actually, MOST people in the US are, especially most white middle-class citizens. I'm sorry for those who are not…
It's ALL unacceptable!

Additionally, the author goes into the life circumstances and backgrounds of all the main characters, which I really appreciated, as it gives context to their attitudes and behaviors and to how they live out their lives.
I am only giving it 4 stars because I didn't think the ending went far enough towards resolution...i.e. where are the major players now and what are they doing? How has what happened to the main protagonist affected her life now? I just thought things ground to a halt that was way too abrupt.
Riveting...almost!
