Εκδότης Picador , ISBN 9781035014767
'A provocative look at the twisted roots of American fundamentalism.' Will Self, Evening Standard Books of the Year
`Excellent . . . a lucid, judicious, even sympathetic account not just of Mormon Fundamentalism but of the seductive power of fanaticism in general.' Daily Telegraph
`Remarkable . . . for anyone interested in the wilder frontiers of spiritual conviction, this book is a must.' Independent
Brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty insist they were commanded to kill by God.
