VERY WELL WRITTEN

VERY TALENTED WRITER, YOU REALLY FEEL YOUR AT THE CRIME SCENE, WITH THE GREAT DETAIL. DEALS WITH ALOT OF THE COURT CASE, WHICH I FOUND TO BE VERY INTERESTING. FOUND OUT A FEW THINGS THAT I DIDNT IN OTHER BOOKS. (HUSH LITTLE BABIS). IM STILL CONVINCED SHE DID IT. READ THIS ONE YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED. HARD TO FIND HOWEVER, GET A USED COPY, I DID;

night and day

The difference between this novel and others like Precious Angels and Media Tried is amazing! Ms Springer is an excellent author who derserves better than the personal attacks I have seen in other reviews posted here. It is painfully obvious that some of the Routier/Kee cult with personal axes to grind are attacking a woman who is honest and forthright. It is also obvious that Barbara Davis has had a hand in some of these so called reviews. I would reccommend reading Flesh and Blood to find out the difference between good research with personal integrity and the florid and poorly researched style of Chris Brown and Barbara Davis

An excellent, well-researched story of a heartbreaking event

As a mother herself, Pat Springer attended Darlie Routier's trial with the hope that the woman accused of murdering her own two sons would be proven innocent. But Pat, along with the jury, was reluctantly convinced otherwise by the meticulous investigative work of the police and the evidence that was presented in the trial, all of which is thoroughly documented in the book. This is a sad, shocking story, but also spellbinding.

hard to put down!

this book is very good. ms springer gave a very good account of what happened in the trial. i knew Darlie briefly. i am friends with people who knew her well. things in this book were told to me from these friends. it was eerie reading it in print! sadly, most have all but forgotten the 2 precious lives that were lost. ms springer reminds us. also, she gives an update of how persons arriving at the scene of the murders have coped with those horrible memories. i now wish i had not wasted my money on the don davis book.
