Red In's Reviews > Murder in Little Egypt

I'm about 1/4 of the way through the book, so still have a way to go, but it has taken me almost this long to begin to even be INTERESTED in continuing to read it. So far, I've only managed to read a few pages each night. There is just WAY to much detail in the beginning of this book about "Little Egypt" and the killer's parents lives (and, as I recall, even his grandparents). I skipped over some of it, not being interested AT ALL in the history of the towns he lived and worked in. To ME, there's just been way too much unnecessary 'filler'. I can understand including details that lead to the development of a man who could kill his own children; but other that that, it's just BORING to read extraneous details. The book did improve, finally, when it got into the details of the murders and law enforcement trying to solve the cases, but could have been better written by not focusing so much on other details.
