I steamrolled through this book. No lags, no diving into unnecessary information. Well written and captivating from beginning to end.

Story
In the fall of 1999, a 22-year-old woman was discovered naked and bleeding on the streets of a small New Mexico town south of Albuquerque. She was chained to a padlocked metal collar. The tale she told authorities - of being beaten, raped, and tortured with electric shock - was unthinkable. Until she led them to 59-year-old David Ray Parker, his 39-year-old fiancee Cindy Hendy, and the lakeside trailer they called their "toy box." What the FBI uncovered was unprecedented in the annals of serial crime.

But when US Secret Service agents finally arrested him, they were met with more than just phony bills. They found that their counterfeiter led a shocking double life....

Not very good
Reviewed: 09-04-23
If you are interested in a detailed history about money counterfeiting and tons of unnecessary information about how Feds track counterfeit bills, then maybe you’ll like this book? But if you want a somewhat succinct and hard hitting book about DeBardeleben’s story, this ain’t it, unfortunately.

The book goes into lengthy, unnecessary details about individuals who aren’t really important to the story. I imagine this book could be half the length and twice as interesting had the focus remained on the actual person the book was written about, and what happened. I listen to a lot of true crime non fiction, dozens of books, and I had to bail on this one.
