Shocking story

Scott Whisnant's book will stay with you long after you are finished reading it. The victims - Kathryn Eastburn and her daughters, Kara and Erin - and the terribly way they died will make you cry. A mind-boggling case of a guy "mistakenly" convicted and sent to Death Row for a crime he allegedly didn't commit. I read this book and was outraged at how Timothy Hennis was treated by the justice system. Afterward, I Googled his name to try and find more information (the book was written over a decade ago) and lo and behold, DNA evidence (techniques were not available at the time of the murders, 1985) links Hennis to the crime. I hope the military trial finally gives closure to the Eastburn family, who have suffered enough.

Very Intriguing

This book was excellent with a capital E. Everything about it was exactly how the movie was, and that's what I liked about it. Everything was the same nothing was changed. It was a sad book that depicts the way how sick people live in this world. This man Tim Hennis was sent to prison for a crime he didn't even commit, and whoever did it was never caught and only god knows when that person or persons will be punished for the muders of Kara, Erin and Katie Eastburn. I would recommend everyone who loves to read, to read this book it is worthwhile.

a true page turner

I was pleased with this book, although it has left me wondering. I want to know how the people involved in the case are holding up now? With no one in jail? This was a horrifying crime and my heart goes out the the Eastburn family. I hope this crime will be solved.
