Title: The man in the surgical mask
Review: Dr Jeffrey MacDonald presented to the world the face of a charming, sensitive healer, but behind this mask was an arrogant individual who, from the time the murders were committed in 1970 until his final appeal was rejected in 1985, tried his utmost to avoid punishment for the horrific act he perpetrated. This story stands as a monument to the laudable persistence of MacDonald's parents-in-law, who refused to give up their crusade for justice until MacDonald was convicted, and the souls of his wife and children were finally at peace. It is also a tribute to the experts who by sheer talent and technology have advanced the field of forensic science to the degree where it is now viewed as indisputable evidence. This is by far McGinniss's best book, as his in depth analysis of the case also compels the reader to reach a guilty verdict. It is my wish that this man will never be paroled to administer his "deadly medicine" on a new generation of patients.
