Casey does an outstanding job chronicling the murder of 31 year old Kari Baker. Unlike some true crime books, Casey starts her readers out right at the beginning of the story, without giving away the details of the crime itself. She leads her readers through the background of each of the individual characters involved, including childhood, marriage, and the subsequent murder and trial. She also gives a detailed update on the conclusion of the case, including the resulting custody trial between the two sets of grandparents for the daughters of the murder victim and her killer. Excellent book. Looking forward to reading more by this author!
