I read this because I had heard of the Jodi Arias trial and something about her murdering her Mormon lover and wanted to know more about it. This book nicely fit the bill. The author spends a lengthy amount of book space (one might argue too much book space) introducing the reader to Travis Alexander and his all too short life. Over the space of 150+ pages, the reader comes to know Travis and really feels for him when he realizes too late that Jodi Arias is a sociopath who is clearly off her rocker. This book could alternately be read as a "how to not commit a murder and expect to get away with it" manual, for there are so many errors that Jodi made that even the novice to true crime stories can point them out with startling frequency. There was only one problem that I noticed with this book, and that was the chapter which detailed the autopsy of Travis Alexander, which seemed to have been transcribed directly from the autopsy tapes and misspellings abound. Other than that, I really thought that the book covered all of the details really well.
