“A most remarkable, well-written book. Mary Leo has constructed a unique example of one-of-its-kind historical fiction based on actual horrendous murders of extraordinary evil, coupled with a woman’s own unknowing proximity to the crime two decades earlier.” –Amazon Reader
“Leo does a great job of creating a drama filled fictional story with a chilling historical backdrop. Trusting Evil is a page turner. I was repulsed by Richard Speck and could genuinely feel Carly’s pain and guilt. This book is passionate, it is scary and it is romantic, I highly recommend it.” –Veronica
