The Amish Wife: Unraveling the Lies, Secrets, and Conspiracy That Let a Killer Go Free by Gregg Olsen
1.0
Gregg Olsen’s historical true-crime book, The Amish Wife, examines the suspicious death of a pregnant Amish woman in 1977. The book claims to expose the truth behind the lies, secrets, and conspiracy that let the killer walk free, but it falls short of its promise. The book is a slow burn that drags on for too long, with too many irrelevant details and repetitive information. The author does not provide enough evidence or analysis to support his conclusions, and the narrative is often confusing and contradictory. The book does not offer a satisfying resolution or justice for the victim, and it leaves many questions unanswered.
It has an interesting premise and a fascinating setting, but the book fails to deliver a gripping and insightful true-crime story. The Amish Wife may appeal to some readers who are curious about the Amish culture, but it is not a compelling or engaging read. I would not recommend it to anyone who is looking for a well-researched and well-written historical mystery.
