I was one of those who'd ignored this case in my true crime reading, thinking it was old news. But Fisher's research is really deep. We learn all the twists and turns (including two female jury members were seriously overweight & ate too much during jury luncheons!). I thought the book very well-written though it does bog down every once in a while and the cast of characters is daunting. A sad and historical case, well-described, and with conclusions well-supported. If you're interested in the crime I believe this is the book to pick to get true information without a lot of slant.
