Title: Heart Full of Disappointment
Review: I hate to give anything by Ann Rule two stars - - but here it is. I just did not like this book. It seemed very rushed, compared to some of her "classics", like The Stranger Beside Me and Small Sacrifices. The principals were not fleshed out and Liysa Northon was just not that interesting of a character. Certainly no one deserves to be a victim of any type of crime, but I did not find myself compelled with Chris Northon's story or his death. There was no mystery as to who killed him and Liysa's eventual plea bargain stopped the court proceedings in the book.I would have to say that this weak story might have been better served in one of Ms. Rule's True Crime files, where it might have gotten less than 50 pages, versus the devotion of an entire book.
Is the review positive or negative?
