The writer is in pure reportorial style. His sentences are short. His pace is sometimes plodding. He tells the story. Simply. While there's nothing inherently wrong in this, it's almost as if he's 'writing down' to his audience. We do get a full picture of both the crimes and the chase to hunt down the nut case who kills & abuses & steals on his spree. I found it hard to work up much sympathy for him and was frankly relieved that he ends his own life. The best part of the book for me was the fact that the author is able to render dialogue in a believable way and give one some sense of his interviews. I'd term it average because of the lack of interesting crime - but better than average because of careful research.
