Murdered in Jersey: Expanded Edition

Rating:
Summary: An Interesting Overview
Review: The author offers summaries of 60 murder cases which took place in New Jersey. At first I thought that the short reports were simply too short, but as I got in the rhythm of the book I thoroughly enjoyed the scope of the undertaking. This book is especially interesting for anyone who has lived in NJ for a while as the localities, newspapers, reporters, attorneys, and facts of the crimes all seem surprisingly, and sometimes chilllingly, familiar. Also, the author offers information on books and newspaper articles for those who might want more detailed information on each crime described. This is a good idea for a book, probably every state in the union should have one like it.
