Murder in the Bayou: Who Killed the Women Known as the Jeff Davis 8? by Ethan Brown

1.0

While the case may be very interesting and suspenseful and Ethan Brown may be a very fine journalist and writer, this book was organized in such a way that it both confused and disinterested me. The jumping around from victim 1 to early history of the parish to another victim to the history of the last few sheriffs of the parish introduced so many persons important to the plot so quickly and all at the front, which made it hard for me to follow the nuances of the plot. Ultimately, I just wish this book had been organized differently, because the story may be an important one about police corruption in America and the resulting stifling of justice in the communities affected by that corruption.
