Overview: On the night of July 22, 1972, Earl Harmen thought it would be a good idea to have a party. There’d be grass, beer, pills, maybe some paint to sniff, the house would be dark, and Earl would have his laughs. So he sent his buddy Lee Criley to fetch some people, and the fun began. By party’s end, a boy and a girl were handcuffed naked to a wooden board, Lee Criley was in a nervous daze, and Earl Harmen was shot dead.
But what the police stumble upon the following morning turns out to be more than a freak murder after a night of pot and pills. For years, West Haven had been plagued with a disproportionate number of missing boys whose frantic parents refused to accept the police’s judgment that they were simply runaways. Now, with Lee Criley’s bone-chilling testimony, the mystery of the disappearances was slowly being solved. The slain Earl Harmen, thirty-three, whom his neighbors considered a nice, quiet man, was in reality the perpetrator of a series of monstrous murders involving torture and homosexual assault. He was a deranged Pied Piper, leading, and loving, the children of his township to death.
The subject is mass murder, and author Robert Paier is not afraid to confront it head on. He tells the story of the murders frankly and tastefully and delves into the backgrounds of Harmen and Criley, seeking answers to their demented and antisocial acts. What, for instance, are the crippling factors that turn a man into a mass murderer? Where, along the line, do hate and love become tangled in a man’s mind and the urge to destroy a part of everyday reality? The Pied Piper is, in some ways, a frightening book to read. But it is also an intriguing one—captivating in its suspense and stunning for its revelations.
Almost every aspect of this "novel" is a "fictional" retelling of the life and death of Dean Corll, The Candy man (aka The Pied Piper). Only the dates, names, persons and locations have been changed. See Wikipedia.
