The Kill Jar: Obsession, Descent, and a Hunt for Detroit's Most Notorious Serial Killer by J. Reuben Appelman

1.0

This book is the very opposite of what the synopsis reads. It is neither gripping or thrilling. It is melodramatic and languishes in the author’s self pity for what has happened to him in adolescence. When all is said and done, I feel like I know the author in a way I did not care to know or need to know. The murders however? I feel like I know almost nothing about the murders.

This reads like an autobiography with a sprinkle of a cold case investigation added in. Not worth the time.
