captivating information

The storyline kept my attention the entire length of the book, also I learned alot more about the case.

Excellent telling of the facts

This makes a good audiobook. Very well researched. I like that it considers so many points of view.

Good Story...butt...

not worth a credit at just over 5 hours long...but it was well written and held my interest. Worth a listen.

Well done!!

So much info! You really feel like you know all the players. He kept it real w/o going for the high drama.

Great insight

I like the detail information and learned more details. Very good book. I suggest you listen!

Fantastic book

Details were great and narration was good! Highly recommended! Didn’t want it to end! Howard Blum is a fantastic author

Best book so far on Idaho tragedy

I am almost finished listening to this book, and must say I’m impressed. The author did a lot of research in putting this book together, and it shows. That wasn’t easy, he explains in the introduction, because of gag orders and other obstacles. But he persevered and the result is this book.

I have been following this case pretty closely, and I find true crime fascinating in general. But I learned some things I didn’t know, including some background of the alleged perpetrator. Info about the town of Moscow and university life, especially its “Greek life,” added interest and local color.

This selection is much better than another one in my library dealing with the same subject matter, in my opinion. This has more factual info and is better written, definitely worth the credit!
The narration is spot on.

Good listen!

After I finished. I felt like I was expecting more. But it really has nothing to do with the book. It’s just the timing of it. Other than hat, it wasn’t like a lot of other true crime books that bombard you with details and facts. It was just enough. Would definitely recommend reading.

A bit disappointing

The story was hard to follow the details on some characters was somewhat disengaging overall and at times while listening I wondered why the topic shifted so vastly from the main characters of this tragedy.

Accurate, Fascinating and Eye-Opening!

The book covers very accurately details that are well known as well as reveals many unknowns in this case. I’ve been following this case anxiously awaiting for the trial to begin and hoping for new information. This book went over many well known details to refresh my memory but also introduced some new details that I hadn’t known about Bryan Kohberger. I highly recommend it!
