Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders by Vincent Bugliosi

4.0

---

Absolutely engrossing and wonderfully detailed from beginning to end, this book captures an already fascinating story and answers virtually all of your questions, leading you in with just the right amount of information and allowing you to follow along with the investigation in a unique and powerful way. Obviously Bugliosi was given an agenda from the very start, but the perspective is still reasonable and his prose allows for quick and entertaining reading. Go read it - you won't regret it.
