My great uncle was mentioned in this book twice.
I don't recommend this book unless you're super into true crime from missouri in the 1950s.

I usually reserve 1 star reviews for books that I can't finish. And while I did complete this book, it was only for a reading challenge. The writing was redundant and disjointed. The best thing about this book was the title. I wouldn't waste your time.

This fantastic work now ranks as one of my all-time favorite books, and it will have a place of honor in my personal collection. It isn't easy to recount the notorious murder of a small child without becoming sensationalist in order to convey the gravity of the crime. The author has managed to pen a tastefully presented narrative that explores the character of a full spectrum of players.
This book is on the level of "In Cold Blood," and that's a very high standard, indeed.
