I was quite disappointed with this book and a little horrified. Oh certainly about the murders. Millions of people have been horrified for about six years. No, a little horrified at the author’s mindspace. With bated breath she hurries to tell us how, 3,2,1 I’m on the air, having to relay the latest drivel. There’s nothing in this book we haven’t read before, except for Paul Holes explanations on killers and his own guesses about the Delphi killings of two young girls.
I expected more. Why read this if it is nothing more than a regurgitation of other media regurgitations. She writes with bated breath, which is offensive. She doesn’t know anything extra. She just wants to get out there with the “first book “.

4 stars

This is written very well, and you get a different pov from most true crime books (journalists side). There isn’t anything new here for people that follow this case closely though.
If you’re new to the case this will cover everything you need to know.

Like the author, this is a case I became obsessed with and it was such a relief when an arrest was made last year. The author gives a viewpoint from a journalist covering this event which is a perspective unique to most books. Having said that, if you are familiar with the case, you aren’t getting new information here—just a new perspective. The book does cover events through spring of 2023 so it is up to date.
