Good Summary of Moscow, ID Murders

It was a good summary of what is known and verifiable about the murders. It also includes a background sketch of the victims and the accused. I listened to another audiobook on the same subject and thought this was more comprehensive.

Detailed and Wonderful Victimology

I completed this book in a couple of sittings. The details regarding Zana, Ethan, Maddie, and Kylie were priceless. I feel that I got to know and connect with them since I have a young daughter who will be entering college. I really appreciated the details of the suspect as well and could visually imagine the layout of the scene. I have watched many true crime shows that have dissected this case and this book is a must to get acquainted with the details of the crime, a possible motive, and an intimate deep dive into the lives of the victims and the impact this crime has had on the community.

Excellent writing + narration

This book brought me to tears several times. I finished it quickly because it was so interesting.

Not as Engaging a Listen as I’d Hoped

I’m not sure if it was the narrator or the piece of the story but I was so interested in learning more about this senseless tragedy and understanding more about the killer. But it was slow, dragging and at times, boring. Very disappointed.

Bland and unexciting

I started out hopeful but the book never got overly interesting. I’m sure it followed the facts so the problem may have been the story itself.
