SEEMS UNBELIEVEABLE

SOME OF THE STORY SEEMED UNBELIVEABLE. THE FACT THAT THE DAUGHTER, SARAH, NEVER HEARD "ANYTHING".-FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE. MR. GREEN AND SHARON ARE TWO VERY, VERY SICK PEOPLE. RICKY FATHER'S IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING TO.IT'S ALSMOST LIKE THE CHILDREN DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE SINCE THE DAY THEY WERE BORN!

Its all in the family

One of the best true crime books in my mind. I really like the style of Miss Springer. lots of details. You will read how Ricky lee Green was raised. His abusing father, the relation he kept with that father even as an adult. How he met his coming wife Sharon,and how she became his partner in murdering. Having sex in somebody's blood!! A crazy couple.they killed for the thrill, sexual pleasure they got out of it. I could not lay this book aside. Its a shocking story very well written. Definitely one to buy!!

Awesome book!

First of all I want to say that Patricia Springer is my favorite true crime author and I have read all of her books (which isn't many unfortunately) and I've been reading true crime for many years now and this book is the best I have ever read. I absolutely could not put it down no matter how hard I tried. My mother is reading at the moment but as soon as she gets done I will read it again. It's like an obsession I can't get rid of. I feel so sorry for Ricky Lee Green even though everything he said may be untrue. And it makes me so damn mad that his ex wife just got off with 10 years probation. Why should only he have to pay the price for something she had a hand in too? It's totally insane!!! But I do think that Patricia Springer did a great job on her very first book!

Baffling

When I wrote the first review I was not finished with the book yet...I do want to say that the author did a good job in writing the book but I think she tried to give a sympathic side to Ricky which its just to hard to do...The man is a serial Killer regardless of whatever childhood ( Hardship) background he had that doesnt give you a ticket to kill. I think its apalling that Sharon got away with the murders its clear throughout the book that we now have a murderess out there running free in society and that our legal system needs an overhaul because if we continue to allow these deals to go on where the the sharons of the world testify to get free of jail its pretty bad. I could not feel sorry for Ricky alot of the facts that were given to the author came from ricky so thats why i find it hard to believe that all he has said is true...I have no doubt he was abused as a child but the story is being told from a complete insane person ...No sympathy here... I do however hope that where ever sharon resides that she is being watched on a daily basis for the sake of her community...For all true crime readers the book is definetly a must read but you will come out just as baffled as i was...

If your a True Crime Fanatic: Blood Rush Is Mind Blowing!

Being an avid True Crime book reader, I can say Blood Rush kept me wide-eyed the whole time I read. Attention to detail was given with a lean towards sympathy for Green. I do believe though that his wife got away with murder!
