Summary: Raffi is a natural born killer
Comment: Check out internet listings of the torso found in his dumpster which he was questioned about. Half of the dead Swedish nanny Karina Holmer was found in his dumpster. I also filed suit against this punk and his employer for harassment. Also check out his front page travel section writings on traveling in the desert before he killed his friend. He wrote these articles for the Boston Globe which launched a cover up campaign for him. This natural born killer knew exactly what he was doing. He just wanted to be another Jack Kerouac and wanted to make a story to sell.

Summary: A fantastic debut
Comment: I knew this book would be of interest simply due to the morbidly unusual circumstances of the case itself, but Kersten's journalism is what makes this a genuinely good book. His prose is a pleasure to read, economical but with a flair for the romantic and an excellent instinct for presenting the case in a larger context, vis a vis the southwestern desert and the very human relationships involved. He never moralizes or takes sides, letting the stark ambiguity of Kodikian's story reasonate within each of us as a reader; the result is an absolutely harrowing read.

Summary: one of the best true crime novels I have ever read
Comment: If you like true crime books, this is one for you. The author does a great job of giving you the tales of the trials, and evidence, and lets you form your own conclusion of guilt or innocence.
This is a true crime story that does not give a black and white conclution. Even when the judge finishes the trial, you are not quite sure if it is an appropriate judgment. I personaly don't know if the person (Raffie) commited the crime out of mercey or not, so I relly don't have my own oppinion of innocence or guilt, but the stroy itself is done professionaly as well as interesting. I couldn't put this book down!!!
