I just read the prosecutor's book: "Imperfect Justice." Such a sad and fascinating case.jose baez's book, presumed guilty: casey anthony.
I have a thing for mysteries (I guess the proper term is crime fiction). I like both the "cozies" and the darker ones. In the latter category are the Scandinavian authors who seem to be coming out of the woodwork. Right now I'm reading "Phantom" by Jo Nesbo (Norwegian), and just finished "Lethal Investments" by k.o. dahl (another Norwegian). But there seem to be a lot of Scandinavian authors in this genre lately. And I like most of them, so far.
Claire; These are two of my favorite authors from Sweden:
Henning Mankell- all of his Insp. Kurt Wallander (they have made for TV some mysteries from his books on PBS).
Hakan Nesser- Insp. VanVeeteren
I'm sure neither book can say "what really happened" - which is what we want to know! I didn't know many of the details before reading the book - just that the verdict was a shock to many. I thought the Ashton book was not particularly well written. He really didn't hide his disdain for Baez. Don't know if I'll opt for another $4.99 for "Presumed Guilty" (the Kindle price for both books). Let me know if you think I should!
