I must be getting old and sillier for when I started reading this book I realized I had already read it. So maybe that is reflected on the score, out of sheer frustration more than the entertainment value of the book.
Once again we are looking at unadulterated greed from the very rich and famous. I am way past the point on trying to understand the extents of human greed, more so on people that apparently had everything to begin with. I hate these kind of people more than any other kind, for even though killing for money is never justifiable, it would make a little more sense if a poor person kills a rich (what kind of twisted logic that is, anyways!) than to witness a rich person, a son to boot, that determines that killing his family will benefit him financially. This is one of those tales, fairly good writing but somewhat predictable as to who committed the crime.
This writer is good but like I mentioned, once you read it once is not the same thing. For True Crime enthusiasts it will not disappoint. 3.5 Stars.
