Mary Todd

I was given a copy of this book for my frank and honest review. When I read the description, I thought this sounds interesting. Well let me tell you this is one of the best and saddest books I've read. It is a well written account of the Todd family's fight to find out the truth behind their son's Todd's death in Singapore.

I received a copy directly from the publisher. I had heard about this case by watching 48 Hours covering the mysterious death of Dr. Shane Todd who was working abroad in Singapore. This book is written by his mother, Mary Todd and co-written by his cousins Christina Villegas. This is not easy material to read because it is a true story, I feel for his parents and all that they have endured.

The way evidence was handled and destroyed is sickening, I would think twice before seeking work in another country. I really hope that the truth will come out for this case and give his parents some kind of closure to let Dr. Shane Todd rest in peace.… (más)
