On January 28,2011 Julie Schenecker did the unthinkable, she murdered sixteen-year-old Calyx and thirteen-year-old Beau Schenecker. This book grabs you from the start and does not let go until the end. Story is just horrible and makes you want to hug your kids and not let go. Diane Fanning did a wonderful job of keeping it extreme gore free but gives you a very real ugly look at the crime scene. The fact that Diane included the impact on the kids and staff at the kids schools, as well as friends of Julie gives a full overview of the whole horror story. The Father, Parker Schenecker, voice is heard loud and clear also. You can feel his pain on having to deal with it all and he did it with grace. Very good book.
