This Book Will Bury Me

A Novel

By: Ashley Winstead

Narrated by: Leslie Howard

After the unexpected death of her father, college student Jane Sharp longs for a distraction from her grief. She becomes obsessed with true crime, befriending armchair detectives who teach her how to hunt killers from afar. In this morbid internet underground, Jane finds friendship, purpose, and even glory . . .

So when news of the shocking deaths of three college girls in Delphine, Idaho, takes the world by storm, and sleuths everywhere race to solve the crimes, Jane and her friends are determined to beat them. But the case turns out to be stranger than anyone expected. Details don't add up, the police are cagey, and there seems to be more media hype and internet theorizing than actual evidence. When Jane and her sleuths take a step closer, they find that every answer only begs more questions, and begin to suspect their killer may be smarter and more prolific than any they've faced before. Placing themselves in the center of the story starts to feel more and more like walking into a trap . . .

Told one year after the astounding events that concluded the case and left the world reeling, when Jane has finally decided to break her silence about what really happened, she tells the true story of the Delphine Massacres. And what she has to confess will shock even the most seasoned true crime fans . . .

She’s done it again!

Loved this- excellent characters, crazy plot twists and such beautifully crafted words. Ashley Winstead is a powerhouse- I love everything she’s written!!

Worth it

If you’re a fan of longer books, this one delivers. The character development leaves you engaged in each one. Albeit at times unrealistic, the plot line is well developed and far from rushed. I would almost certainly read/listen to this one again.

great story with well thought out twists and turns. I do recommend this book

I felt the narration was a little over dramatic at times. I do recommend this book otherwise

Overall Decent Story; Predictable and Overly Dramatic Storytelling

It was a pretty good story that seemed to be based on the 2022 Idaho murders. The plot was pretty predictable and the narration was not for me. I enjoy other novels by Ashley Winstead more.

Can’t put it down! Movie material

First time reading this author and she did not disappoint! Engaging and intelligent. I found myself feeling like I was part of the group of main characters…wanting to roll my sleeves up and help with their investigation. This book should be turned into a Netflix limited series. Bravo!
