I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer by Michelle McNamara

dark emotional informative mysterious reflective tense slow-paced

5.0

Una obra de investigación imprescindible para todo aquel que quiera empezar en el mundo del true crime. Michelle era una de nosotros y aunque no logró llegar a completar el libro, trajo justicia incluso ya en el cielo. 

Una obra humana, donde lo importante no es solamente encontrar al culpable, sino cuidar a la víctima.

4.0

El audiolibro de esta historia fue una maravilla, un viaje de ida que me atrapó logrando que estuviese en medio de la calle gritandole a Pip, como si fuese una amiga con la que estuviesemos teorizando sobre un caso de asesinato real.

El final me dejó con la boca abierta. Yo no quería que fuese ese personaje porque yo misma lo descarté de mi lista de sospechosos después de un rato. Era la opción evidente pero mi corazón no lo quiso aceptar cuando surgió.

Andie era la víctima perfecta en este caso, pero eso era lo que los medios querían dibujar de ella. La verdadera Andie la vamos conociendo mientras Pip investiga este caso.

Sal era el victimario perfecto, o eso es lo que todos querían creer, ya sea por racismo internalizado o porque era la opción fácil.

Este libro fue tan hermoso que ahora que sé que existen otros, necesito seguir la historia de Pip y Ravi, y contra qué otros misterios se van a enfrentar.
