Glen Taylor Helzer founded a cult, called the Children of Thunder. He declared himself the prophet, and had ambitions to take over the leadership of the LDS cult, which, in his mind, would hurry along the return of their god. Helzer and his followers murdered five people, one of whom was his girlfriend, Selina Bishop. Bishop was the daughter of blues guitar player Elvin Bishop. This book outlines Helzer's history of poor behavior and mental illness, as well as the formation of the cult and the murders he orchestrated.

For anyone who still listens to The Last Podcast on the Left, this is one of the books on their reading list. I have been trying to get through that list for months to be done with it. This was a decently written book that outlined plenty of facts and details about the case.
