Michelle McNamara's obsession with finding a killer makes for an engrossing, tragic, and fascinating read. She presents facts and research in an engaging way without losing sympathy for the actual humans affected by the Golden State Killer.

I really wanted to love and be riveted by this book but I think it was a casualty of its author's untimely death.

I started reading this at the end of 2017 when I was struggling to pleasure read.
