“If there was a scene in a movie similar to the one in the trial, the people would have thought the screenwriter had gone off the deep end.”

“As an editor who has always impressed upon writers the importance of thorough reporting, I was blown away by Biernat’s fierce commitment to getting to the essential truth of this extraordinary case.”

“My involvement in the events surrounding the kidnapping and rescue of Mary and Beth Stauffer in the summer of 1980 was the most extraordinary of my law enforcement career. The visual memory of finding Mary and Beth chained together, cowering behind a car in Shiue’s front yard, anxiously waiting for rescue, is etched in my mind forever.”

“A fascinating true story of crime and justice.”
TOM BERG
Former U.S. Attorney
Prosecutor in the federal kidnapping trial of Ming Shiue
Thirty years after these crimes were committed, Eileen Biernat analyzes the depravity of a twisted mind. This is a true story of incomprehensible evil being conquered by a victim's strong faith in God.
