In the fall of 1999, a twenty-two-year-old woman was discovered naked and bleeding on the streets of a small New Mexico town south of Albuquerque. She was chained to a padlocked metal collar. The tale she told authorties—of being beaten, raped, and tortured with electric shock—was unthinkable. Until she led them to 59-year-old David Ray Parker, his 39-year-old financee Cindy Hendy—and the lakeside trailer they called their "toy box". What the FBI uncovered was unprecedented in the annals of serial crime: restraining devices, elaborate implements of torture, books on human anatomy, medical equipment, scalpels, and a gynecologist's examination table. But these horrors were only part of the shocking story that would unfold in a stunning trial...
Cries in the Desert is the true story of "The Toy Box Killer"—a shocking story of torture and murder in the New Mexico desert.
