Story
When a hideous murder makes the headlines, a barrage of questions usually appears in its wake: Why did this happen? Could it have been prevented? What kind of family was the criminal from? Are his parents in some way to blame? Any crime writer worth his salt would attempt to answer these questions - but how do you address such questions when the killer is your own son? In a brave, honest, and moving work, best-selling true-crime writer Carlton Stowers examines the downfall of his eldest son, once a happy child full of promise, now a convicted murderer serving a 60-year sentence.

Story
On a clear autumn morning in 2004, Rachel O'Reilly, a 30-year-old mother of two, was brutally battered to death in her home. It was a merciless killing that stunned the small, trusting community where she lived and devastated her close-knit family. In the days that followed the discovery of her body, it was thought that Rachel was the victim of a bungled robbery attempt. It soon emerged, however, that police investigating the case believed Rachel had known her killer and that her murder had been carefully planned months in advance.

Three years after Thomas Keir alleged his first wife, Jean, deserted him and her young son for another man, his second wife, Rosalina, Jean’s cousin, lay scorched and strangled on her bed. Arriving on the scene, Detective Peter Seymour realised he was either dealing with the world’s unluckiest husband or a serial wife killer.

It was not a clever killing. On May 5, 1973, three men escaped from a Maryland prison and disappeared.

Within a week, the four young men were arrested on suspicion of committing one of the most horrific murders in American history. Jerry Alday and his family were eating Sunday dinner when death burst through the door of their cozy little trailer. Their six bodies are only the beginning of Thomas H. Cook's retelling of this gruesome story.

Interesting story lessened by virtual voice
I was given this through my membership and enjoyed the story. The author gives a good account and I especially liked the epilogue where you find out what happened to the players after the trial. The author’s notes on police procedures is also interesting. The virtual voice with the mispronounced words, the NH for New Hampshire and the lack of emotion detract from the book. But hey - it was free and and an easy way to spend a few hours.

Interesting As Free Book worth a recreational listen
First virtual voice book I’ve listened to. You can tell for example reading “Nine Eleven” as “Nine One One”. Even so it was listenable though it lacked the extra emotion, emphasis etc. a good live reader would have provided. While interesting, the investigation lacked anything unusual, difficult or surprising. It was simply a logical investigation which one hopes the police would always do. There was nothing at the trial that raised any question of guilt and thus there was a quick guilty verdict.

AI voice doesn't replace real human, disservice to book
While AI voice undoubtedly more cost effective, the pronunciation of "yeah" as "ya-A" instead of "yah" and inappropriate or lack thereof conversational voice inflection *almost* precluded finishing the book.

Sorry Husband
What a story about a sorry husband. He obviously had no conscience. No telling what all she put up with in their marriage. Well written. The AI voice is a little distracting, although much better than a female version on a different book. I had to stop that book after about 7-8 minutes.
