A Death in Belmont

I enjoy true crime in general, I think it is the personal connection to the events that make this book special.

Like all Dick Francis books, a really good story but the ending left the listener feeling as if Mr. Francis got bored or stumped and just said to himself "the heck with it." Insufficient character chemistry. The reader was terrific.

I guess I didn't realize when I selected this book that it was a work of non-fiction. It was very well done and obviously very well researched. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

I lived in Winthrop (near Chelsea) nearly contemporaneously with DeSalvo. The author has managed to capture both the ethnic diversity and hatreds of the time and place extremely preceptively. Those who fondly believe that Massachusetts was and is the bastion of liberal thought would do well to read to read this book. Junger's skill at research and story telling shines as always.

Very good narration. Simon Junger did a good job of researching and writing about the Boston Strangler. I would recommend the book if you are intersted in the background and history. The listener can make his/her own conclusions about who is the Boston Strangler.

I enjoyed this book. The author keeps on going back and forth on the guilty and innocent question. If you like true stories I think you will enjoy.

I found it very hard to get into this book and actually sent it back without finishing.

Mr Junger you've done another great job. Well reseached, well written, and an remarkable placement as well. Would recommend to anyone curious about this most disgusting of topics.

I selected this story because I'm from the area. It all happened well before I was born, but it was still fascinating to hear the story. I wish for the victims' sake there were clear answers as to who the Boston Strangler really is and who killed that elderly woman. Narrator did a good job. Easy to listen to.
