It was an interesting read. I hadn't heard of this trial at all so it was new to me. But I didn't like that we knew who the killers were from the beginning. I guess since it's a true story there is no need for the mystery but it took away from the intrigue a bit for me. The end also got a little tedious with all the extra information regarding other inmates and happenings around the area that did not pertain to the case. By that time I was just ready to be done reading it. Not a bad read, just not a page-turner as I was expecting it to be.
