Jack Olsen and Kevin Pierce together is always amazing. One of the best True crime writers coupled with Pierce, who I would listen to reading the phonebook, is excellent.

As good as always

this book was ok. not jack Olsen at his best. The extraordinary scale of the crime and indifference of the police were shocking but overall not a great read.

If your looking to find more insight into the happenings of Dean corll and accomplises, I think you'll be disappointed, in this listen. Not much more information than what you could find on Wikipedia, and what seems to be a lot of filler which is left to the reader to believe if factual or not.

Hmmm

It didn't flow well for me. It reads like a long piece of journalism but sadly never sits well.

I wish they would release I: the creation of a serial killer.

Not his Best

I’ve listened to all but 2 of Jack Olsens books and this just had the most strange ending. It just finished with a line and then began the end credits. Most bizarre. Really annoyed that it’s cost me my monthly credit.

What a disappointment
