I'm not normally a fan of true crime, so I honestly don't know why I picked up this book. So, please do disregard my review if true crime is your jam. (I am writing this solely from the perspective of a novice).
I've never read anything written by Chip Jones, so it was a new experience for me. And after reading the whole thing, I can immediately tell the immense amount of research that went into writing this book. The book did a good job of setting the scene and describing the characters' motivations. Plotwise, there were also a lot of twists and turns which made the book more engaging and kept you reading. But overall, I couldn't get as immersed into it as I normally do other books. Perhaps it's because of my preexisting opinion/dislike of true crime. I don't want to deter anyone from reading because it is a good book, just not my particular cup of tea.
