Well written..Great narrator...Sad, sad story

Any true crime story involving the loss of innocent life is tragic. So many times while writing these reviews we gloss over the utter horror and terror experienced by the victims. (as I have done in past reviews) No, this isn't a forum for the loss of loved ones but personally felt remiss having never addressed that in previous reviews.
This story motivated the writing of the previous paragraph as I often felt the breath sucked out of my lungs while listening. Have heard stories from pilots discussing how during times of no/low visibility you can lose track of up and down, left and right. This is how I felt during so many parts of this book. The book is very well written (which is the norm for Crowley) and Danny Campbell is one of, if not my favorite narrator. With a gritty resonance, Mr Campbell tells the story while still being able to alter tones to capture the softer side of characters.

narrator voice

Wow. Really good book. Sad story.

Sad but always the way kidnapping goes. Rarely does victim survive kidnapping for money bc the perps are idiots!
The story is written very well. I was attached to my phone the whole time I listened. Couldn’t put it down. One of the better true crime books I’ve read/listened to lately.
It’s a shocking crime. Idiot defendants. Deserve death penalty for killing this girl. Though she does have sketchy friends. Why did she hang out with so many thugs? Not blaming her at all, just wish this story ended differently. Heart breaks for her father.
