English Summary/英文概要： First, She Seduced Them…
Sheila LaBarre liked to troll the personal ads and homeless shelters, looking for men whom society had rejected for one reason or another—men she could easily dominate both verbally and sexually. One by one, she invited them to her remote New Hampshire farmhouse, where she engaged them in S&M. But over time, sex gave way to brutal acts of torture as she mercilessly flogged and beat her captives until they confessed to committing unspeakable acts. Once satisfied that they had paid for their sins, Sheila savagely slaughtered them and burned their remains on her farm… Then, Humiliated, Tortured, And Killed Them…
From the disturbing audiotapes Sheila made of her victims’ confessions to her own bizarre statements in which she claimed to have returned from the dead to be God’s avenger, The Burn Farm takes you behind the scenes of the scandal that rocked a quiet New England town, and into the twisted, depraved mind of a manipulative, cold-blooded murderer… Includes 16 Pages of Shocking Photos

Awards/获奖情况： True crime author and conspiracy theorist Benson (Betrayal in Blood) chronicles the real and disturbing life of Sheila LaBarre, who lured vulnerable men back to her remote New Hampshire farmhouse and abused them psychologically and physically. After some of her victims disappeared, a police investigation uncovered the remains of two young men in burn pits on the farm. In 2008, LaBarre - who believed that she was an "avenging angel" ridding the world of pedophiles - pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to charges of first-degree murder, launching one of the longest trials in New Hampshire’s history. Benson commendably refrains from sensationalizing the shocking details of sadomasochism, pedophilia, incest and sexual abuse [in this] "X-rated retelling of ’Hansel and Gretal.’" 作者班森是一位犯罪纪实作家，同时也是一位阴谋理论家，是著名凶案小说《血的背叛》作者。他在本书中记录了希拉·拉巴尔的一生，希拉勾引精神恍惚的男子到新罕布什尔州的农场里，并对之施加身心虐待。警方发现几名男子失踪后，便展开了调查，不久在农场的焚尸坑中发现了两名男子的遗骸。2008年，这位自称是“复仇天使”的杀人狂被控犯有一级谋杀罪，但她以精神失常为抗辩缘由申辩无罪。此案成了新罕布什尔州历史上从审案到判决历时最长的罪案。
作者并未以耸人听闻的写作手法夸张描述性虐待、恋童癖、乱伦，这点值得称道。
