I've seen several documentaries/true crime episodes about this case, so I did a quick read of the synopsis and requested on Netgalley.
I guess I didn't read the synopsis well enough because I was expecting this book to be more about the more current crimes and murders. Instead, it was a very long life story of generations of Murdaughs. I wasn't super interested in this.
The timeline also hopped around a lot without any real indication that we were switching which was a little bit disorienting especially in the audiobook. I wish that the timeline had been consistent, past to present, or had clear indications of switching times (maybe a date or something) when we switched.
The narrator was great. He made parts that weren't super interesting still feel interesting.
This was partially my fault for not reading and understanding the synopsis when it clearly states the book spans generations of Murdaughs, so if you are interested in this family's history, don't let my review put you off from reading it!
