Publisher's Summary

For years Lori Orr believed her Los Angeles firefighter dad was a selfless hero. When Lori’s dad was arrested and charged with four murders and countless arson fires, it was her testimony that helped keep him from being sent to Death Row. Eventually, Lori's search for the truth lead her to the dark secrets lurking in her family's past and to an inescapable conclusion about the remorseless killer and arsonist known as the "Pillowcase Pyro" and his reign of terror in sunny Southern California.  

Together with award-winning journalist Frank C. Girardot Jr., Orr looks back on the journey that took her from love to fear and the search for answers about how the father she loved could also be a thrill-seeking predator. A predator brought to justice by a dogged investigator no one wanted to believe. A master manipulator who participated in the writing of this memoir in hopes that it would redeem him in the eyes of his family and others who trusted and believed in him.

Super hard to follow

This might be a better story read traditionally. It was very hard to follow the narration style.

Disappointing

Poorly written. Difficult to follow. I watched one of the many true crime shows about John Ore. I had some Audible credits so I downloaded hoping to get a betting understanding of why this man did this. Occasionally the book adds a little new insight to the story, but quickly tales off onto some other aspect of Ore making the whole book incoherent.
