I thought this was a really good read. The author had a lot of background information about Poddar and Tarasoff (the victim), which I like. I enjoyed learning about Poddar's culture and why Tarasoff's actions mislead him and fueled the fire of his jealously. The author also didn't paint Tarasoff as a perfect citizen like some non fiction crime books do, but I still felt she didn't deserve to be murdered.
