Torture at the Back Forty: The Gang Rape and Slaying of Margaret Anderson

The true story of the pool table rape and murder of Margaret Anderson in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Left for dead, practically beheaded in a manure pile, Margaret fights for life. But in the end, the single mother leaves behind a son. Author Mike Dauplaise practically makes Margaret blow a breath at readers as he recreates the night she was killed. He then takes readers to the place she was trying to escape back to, her home state of Montana, and finally, on the investigative hunt of a lifetime as this "America's Most Wanted" drama ends with the capture of the last of the suspects five years later. Dauplaise infiltrates the motorcycle club culture of the 1980s to expose what happened to Anderson and why she was just six months away from returning home to Montana. True-crime enthusiasts will revel in the detail and the hunt.
