5.0

This was a stellar debut that I couldn't put down! In the beginning, since I'm not really a true crime fan, I wasn't a fan of seeing this from the killer's eyes but by the end, my heart hurt for Walker and the traumas he endured at the hands of his mom.

The storytelling was captivating and I dug the podcast element. I need to pick up a physical copy because this is a book I definitely want to have on my shelves.
