Death on Ocean Boulevard: Inside the Coronado Mansion Case by Caitlin Rother
4.0
I have pondered on this specific case for a long time, and how dissatisfied I was by the investigation and acceptance of suicide by those involved, therefore my interest in this book was not debatable.
This book was not a disappointment, and provided new context I had not found through shows on this case. It’s laid out well, and easily digestible even for readers not user to true crime and analytical writing. It can do with increased editing, to not interrupt the fluidity of the writing.
Overall, this is the first book I’ve read about the case. I wasn’t too satisfied, but I think that’s reflective of the case itself and not the book. I would suggest this to anyone interested in true crime.
