I really enjoyed this book. I think the author presented the story in such a way that you did walk away with several questions about the case, which I guess we will never know the answers to. I highly recommend the book if you are a fan of true crime.

Great read. Justified or not, nobody deserves to be treated badly, physically or emotionally. And I can understand not everybody is strong enough to just leave the situation. I enjoyed this book a lot. I feel sorry for the little girls. Hopefully they are not too scarred.
