The Wicked Boy: The Mystery of a Victorian Child Murderer by Kate Summerscale

Did not finish book.

I abandoned this one at the 1/3 way point. It started out well enough, but I found that I just didn't care to find out who/what/why. I'm under the presumption that we know whodunnit going in—and if I'm wrong, then the author did a terrible job of building doubt—so the retelling of the story had to hold my attention in some other way than intrigue, and it didn't. My attention wandered so much I started a different book.
