I kept wanting to get interested and I just... didn't. The book contains a lot of conjecture, which tends to take me out of the narrative because it seems like he was just padding the book to make up for a lack of real information.

Yet another book that could've been a magazine feature. The summary mentions Edison, but, spoiler alert...it's not him, there's literally no evidence in this book to murder. It's a really sad family story that reminds me of the Lemps.
