Summary: 1 of A Kind and That is the Best!!!!!!!!
Review: These 2 Authors have done what most can not do. They have taken a horrible crime and turned it around and proved there can be positive with the negative. This book tells of a terrible tragedy of A daily crime spree that left several dead and one woman to suffer termendous pain and suffering. They tell of the trials and tribulations that the victim goes thu. Which is the way it should be. These days to much is put out for the accused and not the victim. It is about time there were Authors that looked to the victim first! If you are looking for a Non-Put down book this is one of them!!! Billy Hills&Dale Hudson have taken true-crime where it should be with the victim and at the same time keeps you intruiged with the story!

Summary: A Book I Couldn't Put Down
Review: This book is a real page turner. It is written with sensitivity and feeling. I found myself feeling very emotional for all the victims. The crimes were all so senseless and cruel. The people involved are an inspiration to themselves and others. They have come through what could have been impossible odds and they have beaten them.The system for once didn't fail. A community was drawn together. One of the high points for me was the jury deliberations. I feel that Billy Hills and Dale Hudson have a bright future ahead for them. I am honored I was given an opportunity to be one of the first to read their second book. I look forward to reading their next book and I will not forget "A Reason to Live".

Summary: Excellent, touching, a true page turner!
Review: This book is a very moving account of one woman's struggle to survive a horific crime and overcome the injuries to herself as well as the death of her friend. It is a story of her struggle to overcome obstacles so terrifying and so painful and yet triumph in the end.Dale and Billy did an excellent job on this book. Their writing style keeps you interested as well as absorbs you in the story. Also, check out their other book, "An Hour to Kill"....another definite read for all true crime readers. Thanks for such a moving story. God be with you, Wanda!!!!

Summary: The other side of crime
Review: This book pulls no punches in telling the story of a terrible series of crimes, and the lifelong consequences for the victims, one survivor in particular, Wanda Summers. Wanda suffered a gunshot wound that was meant to kill her. Her entire lower face was destroyed. The story was written with the full cooperation of the remarkable Summers family. The focus moves from the callousness of the killers, who kill to silence those they rob and rape, to the victims themselves. This is also a story of victims rights, the prosecutor in the case was one of it's strongest champions, and has done much to further that cause. He kept their images and stories alive throughout the long appeals process. Wanda's recovery and willingness to reenter society is inspiring, her setbacks are recounted, and you realize that for each painful incident described, there were probably many more like it, and you can feel just a fraction of her suffering. She is not portrayed as a saint, just a very real, very strong woman, a mother and wife whose love for her family and their's for her, helped bring her back from an earthly Hell.

Summary: Testimony Of Strength
Review: This book was definitely a testimony of the strength and determination that Wanda Summers experienced throughout the entire tragedy. From beginning to end this book told the story of how one woman can persevere through incredible odds. Dale Hudson and Billy Hills have done a masterful job...a must read.

Summary: An amazing, well written book on true crime
Review: This is the most well written book that I have read. I like how it doesn't go on and on about the horror inflicted. They let you get to know all the people involved and focused on their lives. It lets everyone know that there is hope for the justice system afterall. Kudos to all involved. I will read all that they write. Their writing skills are very refreshing!

Summary: Inspiring Story of Courageous Woman
Review: Wanda Summers is a courageous woman who fought to live
and survive at the hands of sociopath Rusty Woomer and
Eugene Skarr. The story is so well-written I felt as if
I was right there with her, Louise Sellers, and the
other victims all the time. The authors did a very
credible job of mixing the action and narrative so as
to keep the story moving forward. Most true crime stories
have several sections which are difficult to read, but
not so with this one. Thumbs up for this story and the
authors. I am off to find something else they have written.

Summary: Incredible and Inspiring Story of A Real Hero
Review: Wanda Summers...what a courageous young woman. This is an incredible and inspiring story of a victim who wouldn't give up in spite of being raped, shotgunned and left for dead on a cold, deserted road in Pawleys Island, South Carolina. Having been a victim myself, I can empathize with Wanda and her family, and know perfectly well what all she went through just to be normal again. America, when are we going to wake up and take notice of what happening in our society? Criminals get better treatment than their victims. Thanks to the writing team of Billy Hills and Dale Hudson for bringing us another good story of American justice. They are carving a niche out in the true crime genre which seems to be read and appreciated by everyone. I will be first in line to buy their next book.

Summary: Wow
Review: What a great true story of how a woman overcomes such tragedy. This is a true crime story but instead of focusing on the perp, Billy and Dale focus on the survivor, Wanda. She overcomes being raped and being shot in the face. Such a great way to tell a true crime story and it definitely is a twist from traditional true crime books. Nicely done!
