Furious Hours: Murder, Fraud, and the Last Trial of Harper Lee by Casey Cep

4.0

Wonderfully crafted and magnificently written, this is the fascinating story of a serial-killing preacher, the man who shot, him, the lawyer who defended them both, and Harper Lee, the woman who planned to memorialize them in writing.

This was definitely different in scope and tone than I was expecting, but it is probably one of the best non-fiction stories I have ever read, simply due to how well the author wove the narrative and how brilliantly she wrote it.

I found this to be very compelling and I look forward to seeing what Casey Cep does in the future.
