Book Review: Green River Killer: A True Detective Story

A striking read! A very good, but very intense graphic novel.
This is the story of the Green River serial Killer. Who murdered dozens of women during the 1980s in the Seattle area. The books begins with an introduction to the lead detective, Tom Jensen (Father of the author), the first murders and follows the case through the identification of the murderer, his arrest and the subsequent interview process.
Do not make the mistake that this book will read like some sort of crime drama show. It is very much a biography about of the detective who was a driving force of the investigation for 17 years. That aspect did not detract from the story in any way. It gave in sight to how, after 20 years, a cold case was finally solved and the effect it had on those involved.  

Also, readers be warned: this book does have graphic depictions of the crimes.

Hello! I'm Rebecca, and while this is not my first blog, nor even my first book blog, I'm finishing up a graduate degree in Library and Information Studies within the next year and I'm hoping to use this space to show off some of my writings. There'll be book reviews, reading responses, and maybe even relatable patron interactions! I probably won't post regularly, but I think it will be good for me to have a place to put my jumble of thoughts into words.
