Sue Ann was one of seven children in the family that by most standards was rather poor. In the early 1900's many circus performers would train in Peru and many of the circus animals were kept here in off season. Peru is a small town that really is only known for it's "circus" past. Peru about an hour north of Indianapolis. Susan Gund was born Sue Ann Sanders in southern Indiana, near Vincennes but when she was rather young the family moved to the north/eastern part of the state to Peru Indiana in Miami County. I tend to believe the court papers as opposed to general articles, or even books on the case because for me, they are more accurate about what happened in the case. Even still some of the information I found through articles contradicted information I later found in appeals papers. Normally I would wait to blog until I was completely finished with the book itself but I decided to look into this case more, prior to me finishing it. In fairness to Clarkson I have not finished the book on this story as of yet. Some of the best information you will find about a case obviously comes out in the trials and the later appeals if the person was convicted. The company thrives on true crime novels and seem to want to be the first to publish so I have found sometimes not only are they a bit liberal on facts but they do not have the entire story because for instance the book I read prior took place before the case had officially ended. This is the second of his books that I am reading and while I think his books are decent I also think due to his publishing company they are often rushed. Then again, for one, although I enjoyed true crime I was not as into it then as I am now, and for two, I probably did not even know for sure where Peru Indiana was at the time.Ĭurrently I am reading the book Deadly Seduction by Wensley Clarkson. ![]() I have known about this case for a while, although admittedly I do not recall hearing about it when it happened. It is always fun for me when I read a book or research a case in which geographical areas that are discussed are places in which I have lived at least near and I know the area.
