Description
"The confessions of Doc Cage were declassified following his death to coronavirus in 2020 at the age of forty-nine.
For many years a combat medic in the US army, Doc Cage became a 911 paramedic in New York in 2010. He appeared to be a regular family man in Queens, where in reality he was a depraved killer.
Sergeant Cage served in Afghanistan, after witnessing 9/11, and in various other hot spots around the world. In addition to discussing his marriage and children, his diary touches on his childhood where so much damage was done. In his own words, Cage even confesses to torturing a drug cartel rival in Mexico as a teenager.
The Cage confessions are an attempt to understand how a New Yorker on the frontline in the war against the Covid-19 pandemic, led a double life of violence and murder, while deliberately exposing the public to the coronavirus that killed him.
American Slaughterhouse is a provocative crime thriller of the whydunit variety. Subgenres include: noir, military, and psychological thriller."

Very controversial.
I couldn't put it down. It reels you in, grips you.
It's sickening, but you must keep reading. Not something I would normally read, but I did.
It's sick and twisted. Messed up and somewhat out there.
Worth a read, but be warned, it's not for the faint hearted or queasy!!

American Slaughterhouse: Confessions of a 911 paramedic is a very wild read. Unrestrained, brutal, graphic. It severely messes with your head and makes you think. Utterly unputdownable as, as twisted as it is you feel compelled to keep reading.

Very intreseting story about the life of a first responder. Its a very real story. Its raw and about things that really happen. Its not only on tv you see those things. It can happen to you to. It was hard to read sometimes. But i would recomend it very much.

A story designed to invoke strong feelings...very strong. The death of a well respected paramedic from the covid 19 virus uncovers his personal diary that is full of secrets that no one would have believed possible for a man whose actions were always considered noble. As the truth comes out, the whole world is shocked by his descriptions of the behaviors he kept so well hidden.
This is not your typical psychological thriller. This is not a book to read while in a room full of people, you will want to concentrate...and take a breather every couple of chapters. Shocking is not a strong enough word for his actions...but there are so few people of this caliber that there really is no word strong enough. Again, this book will invoke strong feelings. And keep you talking about it for weeks.

i wasn't sure if this book really was fiction or based on true life, it was a good read, a bit graphic but keeps you reading.

This was quite an interesting read. It's written like a diary, giving the reader a first-hand look inside the author's mind. There are some very graphic and disturbing scenes inside, and I admit a few times I almost stopped reading. Horrifying scenes aside, this was well-written, (which is why I'm giving it a 4 and not a 3), and if you've ever wanted an unfiltered look inside the mind of a serial killer, you've found it. If you have a (very) strong stomach, and you're a bit true-crime obsessed, then you'll likely find this quite the enjoyable read.
