Anatomy of a Killer is a interesting book, mostly because it leads you around in circles with each piece of evidence that the author gives to you as the reader as well as to the main character in her search.
Romy Hausmann is a new author to me, but I found her writing to be engaging and draws you in to Ann's campaign to prove that her father is innocent to the crimes that he has been arrested for.
