Title: Disappointing to this Ann Rule fan
Review: This book started out quite promisingly in, it seemed, the Ann Rule mode. However, I soon noticed that whereas Ms. Rule provides plenty of local color, historical anecdotes and family background, this book seems to be just a chronological compilation of court transcripts, newspaper articles, and anything else that could be obtained by anyone under the Freedom of Information Act. With its endlessly dull verbatim quotes from this or that legal professional, not to mention the truly tedious footnotes, it reminded me more of a sophomore term paper than investigative reportage. I, like others, found myself frustrated with the lack of a real ending. And speaking of frustration, these are real people--why did I have to go to the Internet to find a photo of them? Any true crime book worth its price should have several pages of photos, and Mr. Schiller couldn't even provide one of the victim.
