Ashley Flowers’ background as a True Crime podcaster really screams in the writing here. While reading all I could see was a million and one comparisons and similarities to the murder of JonBenét Ramsey. I’m not sure if that was the intention of the author, but I do think that it gives a little bit of closure to those who have continued to follow the case, as this at least gives an answer to what happened to January Jacobs.
Unfortunately, I felt like the ending was just pushed a little further than it needed to go. The dad being the killer just didn’t make as much sense as Elliot who had all the evidence in his storage unit.
