Summary: Worst book I have ever read
Comment: First off, I had no previous knowledge of this crime, I decided to read this book because the back cover promised a "shocking diary" kept by Bob Coulsons adoptive mother amongst other things.
Well guess what? The diary is mentioned in maybe 2 paragraphs in the whole book. You don't get any insight into the relationships of these people. You only get a quick rundown of the parents. There was a few minor "scandalous" behaviors, like the two sisters getting pregnant before marriage, but other than that, nothing.
There was no in depth bio about who Bob Coulson was, nothing about his past, except that he was adopted at a young age. The only reason he killed his family was for the inheritance. I have no doubt that he did this awful crime but i think there was a lot more behind it. Why couldn't the author have dug a little deeper?
The book was written horribly, at an extremely fast pace, and there were no "shocking photos".

Summary: Not Worth Reading!!!
Comment: I agree with all the other bad reviews of this book. It is well known that the author of this book is good friends with this "so called" favorite niece of Mary Coulson. This neice, Linda, never spent much time with the Coulson family & acting as if she was Mary Coulson's favorite niece is a farce. "Auntie Mary " indeed!!! The fact that this favorite niece would allow slander of the other children is outrageous. No child is perfect. They all disappoint their parents on occasion but to act as if they were all bad or awful for just being normal children is ridiculous! A third of the book discusses the courtship of Otis & Mary Coulson, their long extended background, etc. Nothing to do with the murder case itself. There are some photo's of the coulsons, the crime scene ect, but what's the purpose of the photo of Linda & her husband Tim? Why not picture's of the Mary's Parents or other relatives she speaks of? Seems Linda enjoys the attention in this case & is milking it for everything she can. She didn't know Bob, she barely new him & never spent much time with him. All of this information came either from the niece or straight from court transcripts. This author did no ivestigating of her own. Only what ever Linda told her. This so called favorite niece loves all the attention & will never get enough. What a joke this book is! It took me all of a day & a half to read this trash. I had to pick at least one star. If they had negatives, I'd pick -100.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: I cannot express how bad this book is. If I could rate it less than a star I would. I knew the people and was close to the case. This is a work of fiction with no regard as to how the deceased peole are being slandered or what effect it might have on those left behind.
