This gripping true crime memoir pulls on your heartstrings with each case it recounts. Spanning his 20-year career, Jarrett Ferentino offers not only behind-the-scenes insight into these crimes, but also a deeply human perspective on the gut-wrenching emotions, struggles, and resilience of the mothers whose children were brutally murdered. His storytelling captures both the investigative process and the enduring strength of those left behind.
This haunting yet powerful read is not only hard to put down, but stays with you long after the final page. To the mothers in this book, your strength and determination are a beacon to all. And to Jarrett, thank you for telling these stories.
