A book of true crime for the Read Harder Challenge. Two stories are juxtaposed here, as the subtitle implies. I found the memoir much more engrossing than the analysis of the murder, which the author primarily recounts/reconstructs from documentation.

Stunning

One of the best true crime books I have ever read; one of the most powerful memoirs I have ever read. We should all take such introspective stock of our lives and the lives around us.
