Story4.5 out of 5 stars 28
Dean Milo was a phenomenally successful businessman. Along the way, he established a lengthy list of enemies. His fast-track ride to the top came to a violent halt on August 11, 1980, when Milo was found dead in his luxurious Ohio home, shot twice in the head. A blank telegram form lay nearby. This is the gripping story of the remarkable collaboration between Texas private eye, Bill Dear, and the police detectives of Akron, Ohio, that led to the convictions of the people responsible for the death. It is also a tale of the human weakness, desperation, and overwhelming greed.

When James Dallas Egbert III disappeared from the Michigan State University campus in 1979, he was no ordinary college dropout. Egbert was a computer genius at sixteen, a boy with an I.Q. of 180-plus and an extravagant imagination. He was a fanatic Dungeons & Dragons player before the game was widely known, and he and his friends played a live version in a weird labyrinth of tunnels and rooms beneath the university. These secret passages even ran within the walls of the buildings themselves.

Terrible Narration
What would have made Freed to Kill better?
A slower paced more conversational narration such as Kevin Pierce, this was so fast, I often had to go back and listen to remember people's names, go back and determine it was a transcript question answer in the middle of a chapter interrupting the flow
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
I'm not sure, I didn't finish it. I bought the print version so I'll be able to read it on my own.
What didn’t you like about Joseph B. Kearns’s performance?
