Book: The Book Of Cold Cases
Author: Simone St. James
Pages: 350
This is my 81st read for the year
In 1977, The Lady Killer is arrested for several murders in the town of Claire Lake, Oregon. Beth Greer - a then young woman whose both parents were dead - is eventually found not guilty of the crimes because there just isn't enough evidence. Beth would like to tell the truth about what happened to those people, but knows she can't. That is until 2017 when a crime junkie named Shea Collins comes into her life. Shea has written a book about cold cases and has gotten Beth's attention. Beth feels like enough time has past that the truth needs to come out - even if it means she goes to jail once and for all.
This book was not very good. The writing was just so-so. I did like the ghosting part of this book - held my attention in hopes that the story overall would get better. But it never really did. The story is not griping at all. And, my least favorite - too much keeping the reader in the dark for no other reason but to fill pages.
Stars: 2.5
