This short story collection is an interesting read about how one serial killer can have widespread impact on families, communities, and people all over the world. It highlights the victims and the wake their deaths leave behind instead of the fascinating with the perpetrator. All the short stories are connected but do not flow like chapters in a novel. I recommend this audiobook if you enjoy a collection of stories that will make you examine society’s fascination with true crime.

Thank you @macmillan.audio for allowing me to listen to this audiobook ahead of publication (13 Aug 2024) in exchange for my honest review.
