Michael Cuneo has taken a crime story that was shocking and unbelievable when i had first read about the crime. This author
has made this a book so great that I have had a hard time putting it down. I'm a long time reader of mysteries and sometime
true crime reader. When I saw what this book was about I remembered how shocked I had been reading about the crime in
the paper and a small story I saw in People magazine.
But Mr. Cuneo has made so many interesting characters (and heros) in a book that could have been dry or worse over the
top in trying to shock the person reading it. He is such a good writer, that there are no "dry" periods in the book
that makes you want to skip a few pages. I've been reading all my live and I have gotten so picky about books I read
because you can tell a great writer almost from the first page, and not the best writer too. But this author grabbed
my attention and really told the story the way as if answering questions that you have in your mind when you hear about a crime like this. Who could do this? Why? How is the survivor doing, he makes her someone that we care about and as the book goes one, you have more and more respectt for this incredible young lady. He also describes the detectives in a way that
you feel like you have met them and are rooting for them to find this person, they are so dedicated and the respect I've always had for police in general was confirmed in this book This crime was personal for them and it comes through.n I have honestly haven't even quite finished the book, because I was up all night reading and fell asleep, but sleep finally forced me to stop reading. I haven't had a book that is this do hard to put down in a LONG time. Every page is riveting and
Mr. Cuneo you really wrote a good book here. I'm going to look for more of your books. I HAVE found that the better
true crime books are from St. Martin True Library, they have interesting recent crimes that have occured and fine authors
that write good books. I think they have a book a month come out. Some crimes I don't want to read about but some you
just have to read about because you want to know why?
So grab this book, its a great summer read.

and can say every page is riveting.
The author has the gift of describing the city the crime took place in and the type of people that lived in this great
community without overdoing describing it so much that you just want to turn the page.
If you like an occasional true crime book as I do occasionally, I highly recommend this one. St. Martins true crime
library seems to sell the best true crime books with top quality writers, and this one is truly one of my favorites,
in fact I think I can say its one of the top 3 crime books I have read.
Mrl. Cuneo you are a wonderful writer and I'm going to look you up to see what else you have written. Hes one of those
writers that could write about a box of cereal and you wouldn't be able to put it down.
Great book and a great summer read.
