Die for Me

The Terrifying True Story of the Charles Ng/Leonard Lake Torture Murders

By: Don Lasseter

Narrated by: Charles Constant

In 1985, Charles Ng and Leonard Lake were spotted shoplifting. Ng escaped, but Lake's capture led police to a concrete bunker in the Sierra Nevada foothills, where they discovered the grisly evidence of an orgy of sex crimes, torture, and murder that claimed at least 16 victims. Lake committed suicide: Ng fled to Canada, where he was tracked down and extradited to California. This 14-year, $10 million legal case was the costliest and longest criminal prosecution in California history.

Well done

A well earned and unexpected 5 stars.. I will listen again. Well laid out and narrated!

Struggled to finish

Too much verbiage on the trial. Really didn't completely finish. I had hoped there would be more detail on the conduct of Lake and Ng and the murders, etc.

Extremely sad story, but great book indeed.

I really loved the narration of the story. Great book i finish the whole entire thing.

Lol.

Totally fascinating story. Great true crime. But it sounds like it’s Leonard Lake narrating. Very deadpan.

True crime must read

A well written and detailed account of a series of horrific crimes. I will definitely look into other books from Dan Lasseter. The narration was excellent.
