The Widow by Fiona Barton

Apparently I have some sort of unidentified blood lust, because I am all over dark mysteries lately (and true crime documentaries).  I wonder what that says about me...

Regardless, if you like long books about child molesters and missing children, this is the book for you.  Which isn't to say that it was bad, it was pretty decent actually.  This book dragged a bit but the crime was pretty intriguing - you knew the bad guy was a bad guy but it took a while to understand exactly what took place and why.

I could have used some more action overall and more character development - you knew the people were who they are because you are told so, but there was a lot of room for improvement.

Again, I got what I needed - interesting enough crime read.  I am actually a bit concerned about my mental health though, looking at this list and the six hours of manson murder documentaries that I watched last weekend.

Anyway, three solid creepy internet porn cafes out of five.  Fun, ultimately unmemorable.
