Title: I can't believe people liked this book
Product review: Maybe I was deceived by the blurb on the audio edition, but I thought this would be an exciting police procedural. I didn't realize that it would be a long-winded repetitive telling of an old story with scant attention given to the modern-day crimes and no police work at all. Ms. McCrumb seems to believe that 19th-century writers are able to fill a lot of space because they said the same thing again and again and again. How many times did we have to hear about how Frankie probably killed her husband? Maybe four. Then switch to the present, and the sheriff goes all over it again! How much of this can one listener take?
