Laci: Inside the Laci Peterson Murder

This book is well written and can be read in a day or less. It is such a tragic story but one that needs to be told. Make sure you have a box of tissues handy because you will cry when reading much of the book.

It's the forensic side of the investigation. There are parts that are difficult to read; I have been reading true crime for years and the author is very descriptive. It's very interesting though. I would recommend it if you follow this crime story.

This book was a little one sided, painting Scott Peterson as guilty pretty much from the get-go .... ok probably with good reason but it would have been better for the author to remain a bit more impartial!!! If you are a true crime reader like myself that likes to know all the facts, including the gruesome details so you can form your own opinion, this book really lacks in this area. I feel the author was mindfull of the familiy's suffering and therefore kept the book simple and left out vital information!?! Despite all this it is a good read, once you start you want to keep going!! I found myself really involved in the whole nightmare and I feel for Laci, Conner and her family!! My only words for Scott Peterson are karma is a b*%CH!!!!

Have plenty of time when you start to read this book. I read this book after reading Blood Brother, written by Scott Peterson's sister. There are definitely differences of opinion in the two books: In Blood Brother Anne Bird wrote of several instances before Laci disappeared when Jackie Peterson would speak of her and make faces, roll her eyes, etc. & did not seem to care for Laci too much. This book (Laci) seems to be written from the exact opposite point of view. Possibly the difference between being a part of the process & an outsider looking in. Both are excellent books. This is one you won't want to put down once you start.

I really enjoy reading books about real life events. This book was great. I learned new information about the case and I have followed the case closely.
