Title: LOTS OF RESEARCH, BUT WAY TOO SHALLOW
Review: I have read every book so far about this murder. The magic aspect of this story is captivating and frightening. But this book totally makes it boring! Lots of research and no personal stuff. I can see that he toured the city, spoke to the police, read the trial transcripts and reads scores of books about the history of Mexico but I can also see that he never spoke to a single cult member and knows nothing of them to this day. The book lacks the personal side, the insiders "scoop" that makes for a great crime book. Don't waste your time with this book. If you want to read about the history of Mexico, read a text book. If you want to read about the Constanzo cult, read BURIED SECRETS. It has a dumber name... but a much better story.
