This book was incredibly well-researched but contained some of the most harrowing descriptions I've ever read. I frequently read true crime novels and still struggled to get through parts of this book. I will have nightmares about the things I read, but I think this is SUCH a necessary read. The first 50% of the book flew by with an account of the before, during, and aftermath. The second half regarding the subsequent investigations and lawsuits was definitely tougher to get through. Don't be deterred by the number of pages, there's over 100 pages of acknowledgements.
