Brian Plunkett reviewed Murder Book by Hilary Fitzgerald Campbell
Review of 'Murder Book' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
3.5 stars. I read this after seeing it mentioned in Lyz Lenz's newsletter. Interesting, although I did find myself wondering what survivors or victims' families would think about how the crimes are treated. But the focus really is on the obsession with true crime, and in that regard it is thought-provoking and often funny. It was a bit repetitive. I appreciated its examination of sexism and racism (e.g., in media coverage of crime).
