Fascinating historical backdrop kept my interest. Learn the creepy history of NYC's Roosevelt, formerly Welfare, formerly Blackwell's Island.
Book could have used a sterner editor as it's at least 50 pages longer than it should be. Fairstein's efforts to educate us all about the prevalence of sex crimes are heavy handed and often detract and distract from the otherwise compelling writing.
