Almost the Perfect Murder: The Killing of Elaine O'Hara, the Extraordinary Garda Investigation and the Trial That Stunned the Nation: The Only Complete Inside Account by Paul Williams

4.0

Setting aside the gruesome and heartbreaking subject matter, this was an exceedingly well written, thoughtfully researched and addictive read. Elaine O'Hara fell under the spell of murderous pervert Graham Dwyer due to her interest in BDSM after she mentioned feeling suicidal. Dwyer used this against her telling her he would help to murder her so she wouldn't have to worry about letting her family down and was soon in court charged with her terrifying murder - the lead up to it described in detail in his hundreds of texts and computer documents.
A dispicable human being who is now serving life in jail. Paul Williams did a wonderful job of bringing the story to life, from the beginning of the text/BDSM relationship to the final court case that sent him down. It's a must read book for anyone interested in true crime.
