A review by molly_dettmann
Blood on Their Hands: Murder, Corruption, and the Fall of the Murdaugh Dynasty by Mandy Matney

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

I thought this was a fine memoir about a journalist who also covered the infamous Murdaugh Murders. It all started with a boat accident in 2019 and the powerful/untouchable Murdaugh family and then ended in a murder conviction that made national news. I guess I was living under a rock because I hadn’t heard of this at all, so I’m glad I read this to catch up on everything. I liked Mandy Matney also sharing about her start in journalism, including the highs and lows, but the investigation itself was the best part of this read.
