Gordon “Woody” Mower made worldwide news for his foiled attempt to escape a maximum-security prison in a getaway coffin. Now, behind the headlines is a story the notorious prisoner tells only to author Susan Ashline. Ungrateful Bastard unravels the making of a killer and escape artist, from a troubled upbringing on a rural farm to a descent into crime, fueled by abuse, addiction, and a thirst for vengeance. A haunting examination of the criminal mind, read some of the killer’s tale through his own chilling words.

The murderer first rose to infamy in 1996 when, at eighteen years old, he shot his parents dead, forever silencing his mother’s moniker for him: “Ungrateful bastard.” Mower fled, leading authorities on an international manhunt. When the fugitive was featured on the TV show America’s Most Wanted, a tip led to his capture. The judge spared the teenager the death penalty, sending him to prison for life. The killer’s relentless pursuit of freedom culminated in a daring scheme to escape prison buried alive under sawdust.

A gripping account, Ungrateful Bastard reveals the tragic events that shaped a killer’s dark psyche, and the prison climate that allowed him to practice an escape repeatedly, without prison guards ever catching on. Ungrateful Bastard blows the lid off of the Mower case from the cradle to the (escape) coffin. Sciences sociales

Commentaires

Ashline’s unsettling and deeply reported account will strongly appeal to true crime readers and is recommended for public library collections.
Susan Ashline forges a very descriptive path into the mind of a killer. Her intense communication with Gordon “Woody” Mower is a rare encounter and a miraculous contribution to true crime writing. (Roger Rodriguez, author of Church Pastor, Child Trafficker: Elsa Cuellar and the Crimes in a Border Town)
This powerful story tracks the methods by which evil thrives within a family, one generation feeding upon the next. This one is dark. (Anthony Flacco, author of The Road Out of Hell and Impossible Odds)
