Good, but...
I usually love Ann Rule books. She was one of the first true crime authors I read, and she remained my favorite for many years. But this latest offering feels rushed and incomplete, almost as if Ann herself is tired of writing the books and is still doing it solely because it's her job. None of the stories contains the kind of detail I have come to expect in an Ann Rule account, and as a result I didn't much care about the people involved. When I become blasé about a crime victim, I know it's time to quit reading.
So I give this book three stars, because it IS Ann Rule, after all, and there are no glaring flaws, other than the rushed, "catch it in a sound bite" nature of the stories. Just don't let this be the book by which you judge Ann Rule's talent.
