Thorton

A Memoir by Gregg Thorton
Written by Makitia Thompson

“I never created endings. I corrected mistakes.”

For forty years, Gregg Thorton hid behind new names, new wives, and new towns ;  the perfect husband, the charming neighbor, the man no one suspected until it was too late. Now, in his own words, the infamous killer breaks his silence.

But this isn’t an apology. It’s a manifesto.

Told entirely from Gregg’s perspective, Thorton is his ultimate confession; a distorted, self-serving memoir where every truth bends under the weight of his control. He doesn’t call his crimes murder. He calls them lessons. He claims he loved every woman he destroyed, that their deaths “pained him,” that each act was necessary to restore order to a world too weak to obey.

Page by page, readers are pulled into the mind of a man who doesn’t see himself as evil, but essential. His voice is calm. His logic flawless. His reasoning, terrifyingly human.

As his health deteriorates and his carefully built empire of lies begins to collapse, Thorton writes to prove one last thing: that even when his body fails, his story will live on.

THORTON is not a confession.
It’s an infection.
