This book is open-ended, but thankfully, it doesn’t end with a cliffhanger. It’s a realistically believable story with a community of great characters, especially Joe’s “family.” The letters from Joe’s Grandma is a brilliant twist. And Sara Morsey makes a perfect Grandma. Both she and Kevin Pierce deliver outstanding performances. The story pretty much follows..

Not what I was expecting
Review from No Stone Unturned →
Perhaps I hadn’t paid enough attention to what the book was about, but I was surprised to discover that this is not a history of forensic science. Somehow I had gotten the impression that it was going to be about how science has been used to help investigators and how they influence each other. There..
I teach forensic science to high school students, so this subject matter is of great interest to me. It was very interesting to hear the background behind some of the “newest” techniques of the time.

While I felt the speculative pace at which things fell apart and people turned on one another happened a bit too quickly, it made sense for the sake of story progression. Brings up some good..
This was a really good book. I plan on diving into the entire series. This guy has prepped to his heart’s content and it all falls apart, but he picks up the pieces and knows how to survive anyhow. Love the military refereces to the wars in the middle east, it makes the story easy..
Tragic and Gripping
Review from If I Can’t Have You: →
Just when you think this tragic story is about to end, something new is uncovered. Truly one of the most head-scratching, twisted, jaw-dropping cases in the modern true crime era. The story was told very well, with facts given unbiased from both sides. I highly recommend to any and all true crime enthusiasts.
