This was a difficult story for me to read. John Yelenic was a playmate of mine whenever I visited my Grandmother who lived next door. It is such a sad, tragic story.

I have no doubt in my mind that this author has ADHD and/or is 5years old. Thats how this book is written. I couldn't make any sense of this book which is very disappointing because I think it COULD BE a great story had it been written better! Jumbled, confusing, did not interest me AT ALL. So disappointing!
This was a fascinating case at many different levels. Imagine: a State Police Trooper who violently kills a much-loved dentist. Carlton Smith gets enough of the understory to give meaning to the unthinkable and shows the understandable paranoia of friends and family, watching as fellow troopers looked the other way. That some troopers DID do their jobs - in particular, Gardner, Gonglick and others, some unnamed - gets a little lost.
I'm a little too close to the story to give a rating.
