I, Squealer is a book written by Richard Bruns, about his friend Charles Schmid, The Pied Piper of Tucson. When Richard was 20, he got mixed up in the saga of the Pied Piper of Tucson, a serial killer who was also his best friend. Can you imagine that? I can't.

His later account of what it cost him to come forward is almost as incredible as the story his journal reveals. Compulsively readable from beginning to end.… (mais)
