Totally in-character
Reviewed: 10-24-23
This was great! Everyone was totally in-character to the original series! I loved all the little throwbacks to the original series! Loved the ending being left open for potential sequels. Would love to see all members of the fanged four back in action!! Also, I particularly enjoyed that it stayed in canon and no history from the original series was re-written while still righting some wrongs.

I was so looking forward to this, but was disappointed. The character of Sadie really grated on my nerves. I can’t put my finger on it, but there was something unlikable about her. I hated the book within a book thing too. I get the author was trying for an inception type thing, but it just didn’t work for me.

Story
The police in Jersey County, Illinois, accepted Paula Sims' story of a masked kidnapper who snatched her baby girl, Lorelei, from her bassinet. Three years later, her second newborn daughter suffered an identical fate - and this time the police were unable to stop searching until they had discovered the whole horrifying truth. This is the full terrifying story of twisted sexuality and hate seething below the surface of a seemingly normal family and of the massive investigation and nerve-shattering trial that made the unthinkable a reality.

Story
Ellen Boehm, a single mom from St. Louis, Missouri, appeared devoted to her children. But in reality, she was unequipped for motherhood, financially strapped, and desperate. Within a year of each other, her sons, ages two and four, died mysteriously, and Boehm's eight-year-old daughter then suffered a near-fatal mishap when a hair dryer fell into the girl's bath. While neighbors wondered how Boehm remained so calm through it all, Det. Sgt. Joseph Burgoon of St. Louis Homicide had darker suspicions.

Good, but why the focus on weight
Reviewed: 01-22-23
Overall a good, detailed account of the case. The thing that irked me though is that the author repeatedly brings up and focuses on the weight of Ellen and her friends. There is no need for this, her weight did not contribute to her crimes!

This incredible story shows how John Douglas tracked and participated in the hunt for one of the most notorious serial killers in US history. For 31 years a man who called himself BTK (Bind, Torture, Kill) terrorized the city of Wichita, Kansas, sexually assaulting and strangling a series of women, taunting the police with frequent communications, and bragging about his crimes to local newspapers and TV stations.

Very interesting read. However, at times the narrator’s mispronunciation of words was annoying. Worth a listen is you’re interested in John Douglas, true crime, serial killers, or BTK.

Story
“Sam, could you do me a favor?” Thus begins a story that has now become part of America's true-crime hall of fame. It is a gory, grotesque tale befitting a Stephen King novel. It is also a David and Goliath saga - the story of a young lawyer fresh from the public defender's office whose first client in private practice turns out to be the worst serial killer in our nation's history. This is a gripping true crime narrative that reenacts the gruesome killings and the famous trial that shocked a nation.

Interesting, but somewhat biased
Reviewed: 12-22-22
Overall, an interesting read. Hearing from the defense attorney’s perspective was interesting and gave me insight on how they can do their jobs. It is clear that early on they convince themselves of their version of events and justify a lot by reverting back to law and loopholes in the law rather than morality. I agree with the authors’ assertion that Gacy was insane, however do not agree that the insanity made him not guilty. Despite being insane (all serial killers have to be to do those things) Gacy clearly knew the difference between right and wrong and chose to commit the horrific crimes he did. One piece of the book however, that I found appalling was how the author proudly described how he tore down a transgender woman on the stand! He categorized her as a liar and her entire testimony as a lie because of the fact that she was transgender and therefore lying about her gender. I understand that was likely a prevailing viewpoint of the day during the trial, however, the fact that the author boasted about this at the time of publication in 2013 was horrific. This was not the first time the author’s opinion disturbed me in the book, despite his offering a unique viewpoint.

Story
He was a hard-working small business owner, an Army veteran, an attentive lover, and a doting father. But he was also something more, something sinister. A master of deception, he was a rapist, arsonist, and bank robber, and a new breed of serial killer, one who studied other killers to perfect his craft. He methodically buried kill-kits containing his tools of murder years before returning to reclaim them.

This is a good account of the Israel Keyes case. I especially enjoyed the focus of how the author kept the victims at the forefront. And not just the murder victims but families and law enforcement as well.

Very interesting listen if you enjoy true crime. I really was not a fan of the narrator. Having heard the author speak in various formats I wish they would have chosen a narrator with a similar voice and inflection as the author. However, this did not deter me from listening as the content was very intriguing.

Story
Everyone from Wakarusa, Indiana, remembers the infamous case of January Jacobs, who was discovered in a ditch hours after her family awoke to find her gone. Margot Davies was six at the time, the same age as January—and they were next-door neighbors. In the twenty years since, Margot has grown up, moved away, and become a big-city journalist. But she’s always been haunted by the feeling that it could’ve been her. And the worst part is, January’s killer has never been brought to justice.

Reviewed: 08-22-22
Wow, this did not disappoint! As the author promised, the reader was left guessing until the end. I hope there is more to come from Ashley Flowers. I was already a fan of hers from the podcast world, and she could certainly make it for herself in the author world as well.
SPOILER ALERT:
How could you leave us on that ending?? What happens to Margot and will January’s killer even face justice??
I know Ashley is the biggest crime junkie of all, and I definitely got some JonBenet Ramsay vibes. With the murdered dance queen (pageant queen) who was dressed up beyond her age. And the world believing the mother did it (or possibly the brother), but there’s a lingering intruder theory. Also, I know Ashley has avoided covering that case. Is this why? Was it part of the inspiration for her debut novel?
Just to add, my original theory that I’d come up with was that Margot’s father was the bio dad and had killed Krissy. I figured out the Jodi as the mystery woman from right after she was introduced in Krissy’s story.

Story
It was the trial that stunned America, the verdict that shocked us all. On July 5, 2011, nearly three years after her initial arrest, Casey Anthony walked away, virtually scot-free, from one of the most sensational murder trials of all time. She'd been accused of killing her daughter, Caylee, but the trial only left behind more questions: Was she actually innocent? What really happened to Caylee? Was this what justice really looked like?

This was a great listen for anyone like me, who cannot forget the terrible tragedy of the loss of little Caylee Anthony’s life. The book gave great reviews of evidence as well as accounts and details that were told but not permitted into the trial itself. My only conflict of the book was the fact that at times the author’s own arrogance showed and he waxed and waned between that and giving credit where due. Overall though, very interesting.
