The Devil at His Elbow: Alex Murdaugh and the Fall of a Southern Dynasty by Valerie Bauerlein

dark informative sad fast-paced

5.0

I watched the whole trail of Alex Murdaugh when it was on CourtTV.  I was happy to find this book on the LibbyApp and read it.  It brought into the whole crazy story the history of the Murdaugh Family.  The first part of the book was about Alex's great-great-grandfather and how he opened the law firm in 1920.  It showed how the Murdaugh's have always thought they were above the law.  It was like it was ingrained into them.  I think this is an excellent book.  If you were intrigued by the case, this is a most read.  It is well-written and well researched.   All True Crime fans should read it.

😊 Happy Reading 😊
