Oh, this was a fun book. Not only is it true crime, but it goes into the science of what the poison does to the body and how.

challenging reflective medium-paced

Well done - a nice blend of genuinely detailed biological context and storytelling re: murder - but a non fiction book is never gonna get above 4 stars for me. Bradbury did a fantastic job. The narrator did a good job. At no point was it a chore to listen to. But I also don't remember a single thing.
