Given the descriptive scenes and unrecorded dialogue sprinkled throughout the novel, the research and diligence that McBrayer guides the story by is what really gives it legs. Without a true story to follow, to connect and be more curious about, the imaginative aspect of it would fall short. The conversations are strong enough to carry us to the next victim and the newspapers and investigative interviews really bring the piece to a strong close.
