Book description
Colleen Stan was a sweet-natured, lively twenty-year-old when she set
out to hitchhike from her home in Washington to Southern California.
Seven years later she emerged from hell, the victim of a bizarre and
chilling crime. Cameron and Janice Hooker had literally made her their
slave - and forced her to endure all of Cameron's twisted sexual perversions.
During these seven years the Hookers had two children, entertained
their friends at home and held down jobs - while Colleen was held
captive in a coffin-like box under their bed.
This is also the story of Christine McGuire, a young, inexperienced
deputy district attorney who prosecuted Cameron Hooker for kidnapping
and successfully explained why Colleen - who had numerous chances to
escape - stayed captive for so many years.
