Secrets in the Cellar: The True Story of the Austrian Incest Case That Shocked the World

very good account of a very shocking story and handling of a madman . never to be released is what he deserves what evil

Almost feel guilty for enjoying this so much.

It’s all about the captor and VERY little about the victims. Just know that going into it. Startling and raw. Real and (I assume) accurate.

this guy was sick.

The story itself was interesting. The narrator did a good job. But there was a lot of repeating information throughout the book.

Very interesting! I cannot believe he got away with this for so many years….Tons of warning signs!

what a crazy story! this was a great book!

Eh. It wasn't a book that kept my attention. I always finish every book I start, (thinking if not, I'll miss where it actually gets good at). This book, I KEPT looking at how much time was left, I so wanted it to be over; not because I couldn't handle the story, but, mostly, in part, the narrator was entirely boring, and not of any quality to listen to. There were times I would have a whole 20 - 30 minute conversation, allowing the book to play in the background, and I really missed nothing. It's tragic what she went through, and the children, but I must agree with a previous reviewer, the story is about the dad, Josef Fritzel, and his weirdness, his obsessions, his erotica, his enjoyment, his life, and his excuses. My personal opinion would be to skip this book. There are better written, and better narrated books available.

Very interesting read. I had very little knowledge of this “person” before this book. What a wild ride! Only down side is some major events are spoken of repeatedly which can wear on the reader as they’re heavy topics being discussed.

My goodness me! I never knew about this case until I came across this title. I finished it in two days, and I couldn't believe half the things that had occurred!!! Wow! Excellent summary and great narration.
