this book was ok. not jack Olsen at his best. The extraordinary scale of the crime and indifference of the police were shocking but overall not a great read.

Jack Olsen and Kevin Pierce together is always amazing. One of the best True crime writers coupled with Pierce, who I would listen to reading the phonebook, is excellent.

As good as always

If your looking to find more insight into the happenings of Dean corll and accomplises, I think you'll be disappointed, in this listen. Not much more information than what you could find on Wikipedia, and what seems to be a lot of filler which is left to the reader to believe if factual or not.

Average insight

Hmmm

It didn't flow well for me. It reads like a long piece of journalism but sadly never sits well.

I wish they would release I: the creation of a serial killer.

Not his Best

This is a shallow book full of irrelevant info and so much hearsay comments by everyone but important sources like the authorities or similar. This is surely my last Olsen book that I'll ever "open".

Waste of time.
