Another must read from Hallie Rubenhold!

After reading The Five, I’ve eagerly anticipated another book from Rubenhold and Story of a Murder is well worth the wait.

Rubenhold’s writing makes for easy reading even if the subject matter is horrific. I particularly enjoy how the focus of her work is primarily on the victims and not the perpetrators as well as the amount of research done which is clearly evident in the list of references as well as the “cast� list at the beginning of the book.

For me, the only thing that let the book down was a lack of pictures which would have created additional depth to the story. Otherwise, an incredible book well worth reading.

Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Group Dutton for the ARC.
