Publisher's note

In the heart of Indianapolis in the mid 1960's, through a twist of fate and fortune, a pretty young girl came to live with a thirty-seven-year-old mother and her seven children. What began as a temporary childcare arrangement between Sylvia Likens's parents and Gertrude Baniszewski turned into a crime that would haunt cops, prosecutors, and a community for decades to come...

When police found Sylvia's emaciated body, with a chilling message carved into her flesh, they knew that she had suffered tremendously before her death. Soon they would learn how many others--including some of Baniszewski's own children--participated in Sylvia's murder, and just how much torture had been inflicted in one "HOUSE OF EVIL"

Details the brutal 1965 torture slaying of teenager Sylvia Likens and the vicious abuse to which the victim had been subjected by Gertrude Baniszewski, the thirty-seven-year-old mother with whom Sylvia had been staying, as well as some of Gertrude's own children and several neighbors. Original.
