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

2.0

I received an ARC of this book. I don't know how to feel about it. Bottom line is I don't think it was an interesting enough story. It's the story of a crime but that's it. What happens after isn't enough to fill a book. The text was written very choppy- almost like a very long newspaper article without much narrative.
