The idea of this book was interesting. The story certainly seemed real, and I kept wanting to google the “murders” to find out more. That's the problem though.... The whole time you want more story. I did not need to know the first and last name of every single person the author knew in the town both past and present, or how every single street led to the author's childhood home. The author's involvement in the murders or with the murderer made no sense. It finally gets good toward the end but not nearly enough to justify the slog, with so many important, more interesting parts lacking or missing altogether. I was so sure I knew who the killer was. I'm pleasantly surprised to be wrong without it being some idiotic plot twist.
