This book gave me second thoughts about selling items in the classified or online (or, more specifically, letting anyone come into my house to take a look at them). This is not your typical "he had a troubled childhood and became a bad guy" book. Richard Starrett grew up in a good family with strong values. Did head injuries fundamentally change his personality? That is for the reader to decide, but considering where Mr. Starrett began, and the person he ended up being, it is worth considering. I found this to be well-written and a good read. This is not a "tabloidesque" retelling of the story. It is fairly well-balanced and really makes the reader think.
