- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It was an OK read but nothing more than that. maybe I have become a bit more picky though. It was all a bit dry. You get the information but because the killer always said he was innocent you will not find out what really happened except on what the prosecution thinks what happened based on DNA. It was definitely not a bad read but nice book to borrow, not buy.
