This book kept me up late at night because I couldn't put it down. At first, it seemed obvious that the husband committed murder. But deeper into the book, one begins to wonder what really happened. Highly qualified experts disagreed with each other, which was a major point brought out by the prosecution. If experts can't agree, they said, how does the prosecution go forward? What fascinated me most was the detailed look at both the legal system and the medical system. The author is extremely careful to list all of his sources, quoting newspaper articles when needed, to avoid a slander lawsuit. He also notes statements made by the people he interviewed, especially when there are contradicting statements by lawyers, media, the police, etc.
