Helpful Score: 7

One of the nicest things about this book is its understatement: it's very level-headed...

French chose a crime that, on the face of it, might not leap out...it hardly seems sensational ... & that's French's achievement in "Unanswered Cries." He makes you care about the victim, the crime, the do-nothing neighbors &--yes--even about the murderer.

French does a particularly good job of illuminating the victim & her friends & family without overdoing it. Murderers' actions have consequences far beyond the death of their victim...& French documents that very well." amazon review
