The double murders in Delphi are horrific and Susan Hendricks did a great job of breaking down the tragedy and humanizing it; choosing to focus on the bereaved families rather than all the gory details. Not that those details aren't included, but they are dealt with very gingerly. I'm not sure I've read a true crime book like this before. My only regret is that this book was published so early, there are already so many new details, court hearings, and other information that could have been added to this story had Susan just waited for the trial to be over. Regardless, it was still an eye opening and chilling look into one of the most heinous Hoosier crimes in my lifetime.
