Wolves Among Sheep: The True Story of Murder in a Jehovah's Witness Community (Signed) - Kostelniuk, James

SIGNED BY JAMES KOSELNIUK on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; a few light scratches to dust jacket; otherwise absolute minimal wear; This is unlike any book you have read - or are likely to read again. It is written by the person most affected by the deaths of these two innocent children and their mother - their father and Kim's first husband, James Kostelniuk. Compelled to write the book as an expression of sorrow and love for the family so cruelly taken from him, Kostelniuk also had a deep need to arrive at some understanding of why these senseless murders took place. This question led him to expose the influence of the Jehovah's Witness organization that wielded total control over Kim's life, as it had over himself until he found the resolve to break with the organization. The convicted killer, Jeff Anderson, was also a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses. In a bizarre turn of events, Anderson began to correspond with Kostelniuk from prison, and his correspondence provides a chilling look into the mind of a murderer who held back a terrible secret from the world. This is a riveting read that explores the darkest parts of the human heart and mind and surprises us with the depth of its love and compassion.
