An interesting story of a tawdry man and woman whose intertwined lives resulted in a proverbial train wreck. I enjoyed hearing about the lifestyles of people living on the fringes of society in the Montrose section of Houston in the 1970’s and 80’s. Olsen did a splendid job of writing about the characters involved in this case. And Pierce brought the story to life, as he always does!
On the downside: There was a bit too
much swearing and use of vulgar language throughout. Some can be expected, of course, but it got repetitive. More importantly, the book kind of has an abrupt ending. I was expecting to hear more of the trials and legal issues involved with the perpetrators at the end, but that was left out.
