Book Reviews of The Want-Ad Killer (True Crime)
Book Review: A turn-pager, thought provoking book
Summary: 4 Stars
Trying her hand as Andy Stack (though one sees a female author's hand at work), Mrs. Rule dissects the career of a sociopath with dexterity and compassion. What called my attention is juries and judges had the common sense to convict with the maximum sentence -despite a well-crafted "insanity" defense- given the obvious intent of Harvey Larignan to always cover his trace (ergo he knew right from wrong). This is in stark contradiction with the outcome in recent events such as the kidnapping of the Smart girl, in which both men and woman were considered insane.
