It happened in KEY WEST: The greatest love story since THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN

"Swicegood casts a powerful light upon this compelling tale...a fascinating journey of an obviously brilliant mind to the limits of sanity. The manuscript kept me spellbound."

"A wonderful job of telling a horror-love story based upon an actual event...I read it in one sitting - couldn't put it down."

Rev. Elder Troy Perry, Founder

"Well written...one of the most macabre events in Key West's annals."

Norman Artman, former Editor-Publisher

The Key West Citizen

"Tom Swicegood has given new insight into the strange love of Count von Cosel for Elena Hoyos...exciting and lively...kind and gentle...as the Count would have told it."
